Most of us get the wild partying years out of our system before settling down to raise a family. Journalist Nancy Cawley did it all in reverse. After leaving her husband and four children at the age of 49, she quit New Zealand for the big OE...and partied like the best of them. From Switzerland to Utah she took on a string of jobs as an outdoors/ski instructor, enjoying men and mountains in equal measure, before ultimately returning to Christchurch and turning her passion for travel writing into a fulfilling career that still kindles her sense of adventure several decades later. This fank and affectionate recollection of those times carries the message that life has more to offer the solo woman than coffee mornings and bowls.
