Description
Join broadcaster, journalist and proud northerner Peg Alexander as she launches Love, Life and Two Matching Rucksacks, a warm, frank and uplifting travel memoir.
Facing unemployment, miscarriages, a house fire and a fragile marriage, Peg and her husband, Jimmy, gave up their jobs, home and belongings and set off on a life-changing, grown-up gap year around the world.
From Bradford to Europe, Asia, Australia and North America, this is a story of adventure, reinvention, mental health struggles and hard-won healing, told with Peg’s trademark honesty, humour and optimism.
