Official synopsis Publisher
Jude Bull was successful and happy. She was content in the normal kind of way that 30 year old’s generally are. Cocooned in Jude’s World, one that revolved around Family, a Fiance, Friends and a Pet Rabbit. Oh and Work. Yes, Work featured quite heavily.
Then one day, just as Jude reached the point of being completely sucked and brainwashed into the Corporate World Of Work – It Happened.
A decision was made that would have a huge impact on the Family, Fiance, Friends and Pet Rabbit. Oh and Work. Yes, most definitely Work.
“Thailand you say?” voiced a slightly concerned, not particularly bothered work colleague. “For five months? Teaching English? But you’re not a teacher, why on earth would you want to go and do that?”
Clearly this person was under the spell of Leedsitis, a condition becoming increasingly more common. They were under the illusion that life begins and ends in Leeds, and “Why would you want to venture elsewhere when everything that you need is here on your doorstep?”
And so the journey had begun. A journey, that Jude would never be able to second guess. It involved laughter and tears, sunshine and rain, a vast amount of courage and the chance for Jude to learn about herself – whether she wanted to or not.
