Refreshing... entertaining... amusing. Never-to-be forgotten experiences in Kenya and Lesotho are vividly re-lived. Working as a volunteer health worker, Lizzy travels by public transport to remote villages sometimes with comical results and surprises. She and husband Joe's decision to return to England and settle in Devon is fraught with difficulties and red tape but determination wins the day. And, meeting such colourful characters as Mr. Five Gardens and Mrs. Hugo, life is never dull.Recommended Reading. - Phil Kelly
