What to expect
In this inspiring book, Joanna shares her adventures to some of the most remote corners of the world while facing the added challenge of living with Crohn's Disease. Her optimistic outlook shines throughout each chapter.
Joanna's travels include voluntary work and fundraising for a Crohn's charity, with highlights such as trekking Machu Picchu, climbing the Three Peaks in Transylvania, building a house from banana leaves in Cambodia, and working with elephants in Thailand. She also recounts a medical emergency in Madagascar and regularly going to bed hungry in Switzerland due to misunderstanding about dietary limitations.
Written in a fast-paced, often humorous style, this collection of unique stories showcases Joanna's resilience, proving that chronic illness doesn't have to be a barrier to living an adventurous life.
