Summary

This is a true tale of family adventure and travel through the Balkans, Egypt and Sri Lanka. It tells the real life story of a family escaping the rat race and "the norm", only to arrive at their new home in Sri Lanka one day before the 2004 tsunami. There are no other books in publication telling the story of surviving the five waves that hit the beaches of Sri Lanka that day in such detail- and there are no other books telling the story of a family choosing to take their children out of school and go off travelling for good. It's a genuine story of the highs and lows of home schooling, building a home and a business, and bonding as a family despite the challenges the world and nature throw at them. The tale is told in a light-hearted, humorous way; providing a real insight into what it's actually like to leave the system for...Somewhere Different. There are two more books in production, making this the first of a unique trilogy. The pages of this book will take you on an extraordinary road trip through Croatia, Macedonia, Albania, Romania, Bulgaria and Turkey, with an ordinary family in an old American camper van. There's plenty of action, but with a healthy dose of tell-it-how-it-is realism throughout, and the journey finally takes them to what will become the Longest Day of their lives.
Available since: 11/05/2014.

    Are you eating a reasonable diet, getting enough exercise and still experiencing indigestion, bloat, or other "gut distress"? Do you experience frequent knots, butterflies, tension, or more severe symptoms in your gut?That's because diet and exercise are only part of the equation-scientists are now proving what body/mind theorists have been saying all along: that the gut and brain are inextricably connected. Positive thoughts of joy, peace, and love contribute to a healthy gut. Negative thoughts of rage, resentment, and anxiety are like toxins in the gut.Gut Wisdom will help you learn how to listen to your gut to achieve total body health. Unlike other books on digestion, it is a friendly, readable, easy-to-understand guide that gives you specific procedures you can use to alleviate indigestion, irritable bowel syndrome, constipation, diarrhea, and many other common ailments.

Wander explores different themes and topics that will get you in your feels AND uplift you. 
What others have said 
"I love the feel of it so much before I even started reading. I know it will be so easy to get lost in it. I've just read the anger one and it was powerful. I think I'll have to sit with one at a time" 
"A really heartfelt honest body of work that I just loved." 
"Wander is fucking beautiful! I love the layout and Femininity of these poems. There is so much power and passion put into your words. The world needs to read my favourite, “Surrender to the Crumbling” asap, it is so comforting and deep. Thank you for putting this beauty into the world Rachel!" 
"Rachel I have just read your first poem, Anger is a Gift, and oh my gosh. I am absolutely blown away with the way your words flow yet contain such power and beauty. I can not wait to read more! Very very impressed" 
"I absolutely love and adore each poem in wander so much, I connected to each one of them so deeply.! I loved the boundaries and fire very much.! It's soo beautifully worded and I Absolutely loved how wonderful it is divided into sections and how it's a beautiful wander about everything in life as a whole.!" 
“Some of these poems transport me back to some lonely and painful times. But they way Rachel writes about them, I somewhat feel a nostalgia, because I know now, from her comforting words, that I never was alone.” 
“Wander is glorious, the energy is a deep fascination and curiousness around being human and experiencing the world around us.”
