One of my oldest and dearest Fish Club friends is launching her new book The Wild Green Yonder next week. Check it out!
While Philippa was WWOOFing* her way around New Zealand a few years ago I was one of the lucky people getting her occasional group emails (if she was doing it now she'd probably be blogging). They were facinating, inspiring, funny, sweet and addictive. And now she's written a whole book about the experience of two and a half years volunteering on organic farms.
Kim Hill is interviewing Philippa tomorrow at 11am on Radio New Zealand National. And if you miss that, you can read an article by Philippa about WWOOFing in the travel section of the Sunday Star Times.
*I always thought WWOOFing was the verb for participating in willing workers on organic farms, but it might be World Wide Opportunities on Organic Farms. Don't know, doesn't matter, same difference, you get the idea etc.
sounds like a interesting book
ReplyDeleteCrossing fingers I get to be at the launch (if Council meeting workload allows...) used to love those group emails!
ReplyDeleteI too was one of the lucky group email recipients. they were so inspiring. so it was a real joy to see the book come out. attended the launch and will some time soon post the photos on my blog.
