In this heartwarming autobiography, yet brutally honest book, Marie takes us on a journey into a world of passion, pleasure, desire, and dreams, and brings us to meet the very thing that is driving her. In some of her recounts, she includes war time England as a small child, meeting her husband and his subsequent on-foot journey across the world to marry her and her inquisitiveness with travel which has her by chance visiting a third world country where the people there beg her to stay. Marie is determined and full of energy and is a pioneer into some of the world's intuitive ways of handling the age-old problem of poverty. A must read for anyone seeking adventure while in the comfort of their easy chair.
