The Way of the Explorer

By Chantal Barnes

After a conventional, metropolitan upbringing, Chantal couldn’t have imagined how her life would change when she accepted an offer of work abroad. Join her in this uplifting travel memoir, and gain an intriguing insight into the myriad of cultures, landscapes and wildlife she has experienced. From joining a holy pilgrimage in Sri Lanka to narrowly escaping with her life in Kenya … from teaching in Norfolk to working as a diving instructor in Mozambique … from coming close to a silverback gorilla to outwitting a charging bull elephant …

A candid and entertaining story of a woman who tested the boundaries and discovered a new way of life, exploring the world and broadening her mindset. The Way of the Explorer will bring you on an incredible journey, and may even provide you with inspiration to jump-start your own travelling adventures.

“I first met Stuart through the sheep shows a few years ago as we are on the circuit showing our sheep. He had chantal’s book for sale so being a book lover I bought it. Read it cover to cover in about 3 days and I think it’s probably the best book I have ever read! Written from the heart, compelling, honest and witty she is a fantastic author. Chantal please please write another one! Now half way through Stuart’s dog book!”
