There's Always a Hitch (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781068624100)

Sophie, 47, a broke entrepreneur and very single who is failing miserably at her new life-coaching business. Unable to follow her own advice, plagued with self-doubt, fear and disillusioned with the business advice, still desperately missing her mum who passed away 11 years ago and the only things that are shrinking are her bank account and positivity, her heart tells her to go on a journey. And so the journey and adventures begins. Job idea axed, she packs in her life. Traveling alone, with not much money and the only plan is in the contents of the box (her mums memories) to guide her, Sophie visits all the same places her mum and 2 friends backpacked and hitchhiked through back in 1958. She soon realises her financial situation does not stretch to the luxury five-star smooth travel that she is accustomed, but more like one star, with a run of relatable disasters... It is almost a race against time - what is going to run out first, her visa, confidence, or money? Instead of giving up she digs deep and writes her stories alongside her mums. We also follow the story of Bella, 19, who in 1958, says goodbye to her mundane life and a plethora of expectations to embark on a journey across the world. She ends up in the mountains of Canada working as a chambermaid where she meets two intrepid explorers and when the season ends, they set off backpacking and hitchhiking to Mexico.On the journey, Bella struggles with her father's disapproval and must ignore the feelings of guilt to continue her escapade, but with so much fun and the pull of the male attention, she and her friends keep going.
A Quirky, funny, dramatic story which is relatable, a must read.
