For Ian, it was a magic carpet ride. What began as a passion for fashion and life as a hippie in the late '60s led him on an unexpected journey-one that took him overland from Europe to the remote villages of India, eventually stumbling, due to a family tragedy, into the magical world of handmade rugs. In  Life's Journey on a Magic Carpet , Ian reflects on the challenging moments, chance encounters, hilarious travel stories, and unlikely friendships that led to success. Over 45 years, he transformed Hali, a business he began with one store, into a renowned brand in the rug industry. His story isn't just about rugs-it's about the unexpected turns that define a life. Through his journey, Ian shares the lessons that helped him build a successful business from the ground up. Brimming with powerful insight and charm, this memoir will inspire you to chase your dreams on your own magic carpet.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48991635800283,"sku":"9781923216662-SECONDHAND","price":15.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/9781923216662-us-300.jpg?v=1784515227","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/9781923216662-secondhand-lifes-journey-on-a-magic-carpet","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
