Survival Quest: True Stories of How the Ordinary Do the Extraordinary (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780996703314)

Sally DeMasi grew up in New York, earning her bachelor of science with some studies in Siena, Italy. Upon graduating, she immediately struck out for California in searchof adventures. After her stint in the California high-tech industry, in 2001 she found her life home in the small, pristine town of McCall, Idaho. Her paradise includes a pearl of a lake and outdoor opportunities like mountain climbing, rafting, kayaking, camping, and skiing. It gives Sally the ideal place to experience real living and her art. Now she is free to explore her love of writing and photography. Sally is the author of "Courage Quest", an e-Book available on major book sites, in which she reaches out to encourage women and men to bolster their courage and expand their lives through positive self-image, and to reap the treasures this allows. The book details some of her solo international adventure travels and includes photos from her search for courage. She travels with a small backpack, staying in hostels, moving on public transportation or on foot, conquering her fears, and exploring the cultures of the world. Her photos can be enjoyed at exhibits and in books, newspapers, and upscale galleries as well as on her blogs. A versatile artist, she pushes the envelope exploring new territory, creating vibrant impressionistic/fauvism art, and recently, abstract works with a painterly quality.
