Ten-year-old Sadie Meadows is reading in bed on New Year's Eve when she notices an unopened present beneath her window. She finds it contains a book called The World from Your Bedroom - There and Back Again, but when she opens it up and begins to read, she is disappointed to see it is nothing more than a travel book packed with pages detailing hundreds of places across the world. She reads the first page, then puts the book down just as sleep claims her at the instant that the New Year arrives. She awakes to find that, instead of being in her bedroom at home in Skipton, somehow she has been transported to Ireland, the location that she had just read about in the book. There follow a series of adventures, each set in a different location, as Sadie finds herself travelling across the globe as she attempts to get back home again. This month sees her completing her travels across Africa before crossing the Indian Ocean and entering Australia.

What happens, and who do we become, when they break down?

ISBN: 9789881485007
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 344
Book Description
What makes someone leave home at the age of 16 to move to another country all by himself? What drives a person to pursue a professional kitesurfing career even though there is no sea where he is from? Why would someone study 6 years of medicine, just to not work as a medical doctor after graduation? How did the same person go from complete bankruptcy to financial independence in just a few years by moving to Asia? Julian, the author of the book, was asked these and many more questions throughout his entire life. Many of the answers did not make any sense at the time when he took the decision but make absolute sense looking backwards The beautiful part of these stories he has around his answers is that anyone can not only relate to them, but moreover draw important conclusions for his or her own life. Julians thought processes are NOT rocket science. At the end, there are no good or bad decisions in life - only decisions that you make or don't make. Sometimes someone (you?) just need a little bit of reassurance that you are on the right track. Need the extra motivation to step out of your comfort zone and have personal growth (maybe you want to move abroad or start a professional sports career, or change jobs?) You are ahead of a big change and need guidance (move abroad, change jobs, personal shifts) Feel stuck at where you are and need help and support to see new ways Are at college or graduated from college and want to know through real life lessons if you are on the right track? Want to have highly productive days and get done twice as much as usual successfully? Want to get well-tested tips on personal finance, learn how to network professionally and have fun doing business. Are doing awesome already, but want to be inspired to have even more personal growth or try something new? ...then this book is for you! Julian's 25 easy-to-relate real-life stories are packed with true value bombs and over 75 life lessons and -hacks ready for you to use. Instead of the quick-tips or cookie-cutter-problem-solution approach these 25 real life stories will give you a practical blueprint. Most people never hear about the background stories of & against the odds or against the mainstream thinking; decisions, and what happened after taking them. So when they face a moment of adversity in their own life, they lack the self-motivation to overcome that obstacle. Julian wanted to make sure, that his Younger Self has a blueprint to be well prepared for such challenges and so he collected the most inspiring stories to give not only to his Younger Self but also share with you. Julian's 25 stories will make you laugh, scream, relate, and dream - but most important: They will inspire you to take those decisions in life, that you know you want and need to make, but have been too scared of so far.
