A Woman's Search for a Real Life in Bali.
Traffic, voice mail, a nine to five job. Who needs it? Take the adventure of your life with his evocative memoir of a woman who sought - and achieved - a permanent seachange in exotic Bali.
Gaia Grant dumped her busy life as a teacher, wife and mother in favour of a hut on a sandy beach. She chose Bali for its irresistible beauty and the surf her husband loved.
Six years on she's still there with her husband and two children, living in the same thatched garage Gaia found when she arrived. There's no television but the coconut and paw paw trees, passing cows and surf just metres from their home keep the whole family amused.
'A Patch Of Paradise' is for anyone who has dreamt of escaping.
