'.enough to make even the most unadventurous of us pack a bag, jump on the bus and join Margaret Whitlam in her other world.' Sunday Age 'A readily deployed humour, her zest and her disdain for grandiloquence combine to make this a fine read.' Australian Gourmet Traveller 'What comes through is the verve, the energy, the curiosity and the good humour of the writer, her enjoyment of not only her other world but also its people.' Australian Book Review I For almost ten years Margaret Whitlam led a double life.

Share a meal with a friendly family in their Moscow home, dance the evening away in an Istanbul nightclub and walk through the ancient city of Macchu Picchu . all from the comfort of your favourite armchair and with Margaret Whitlam leading the way.
