At 37 years of age, Mark had only ever seen the inside of three aeroplanes. It was time to change that. So, equipped with his camera and the dregs of a ten-year-old bottle of mosquito repellent, he embarks upon an impulsive backpacking holiday across Cambodia. Corrupt officials. Unscrupulous tour guides. Enterprising tuk-tuk drivers. An endemic shortage of loo roll. Mark suffers all of these and more before his 18 days are up. But in this intimate, unflinching examination of both Cambodia and himself, he also discovers mesmerising cultural beauty and human resilience at its most inspiring, as this remarkable country continues to find its feet following decades of civil war, genocide and political turmoil. As seen through the eyes of a man whose previous idea of an exotic life experience was being served prawns with their shells on...

It is 1951. Beverley is 21 when she arrives in New Guinea dressed in 'safe' pale blue and pearls, to live with her new husband. Over the next months she encounters spiders as big as dinner plates, a family of snakes in the ceiling and a native woman with a baby on one breast and a piglet on the other. But none of this compares to her life after she is spied by the arrogant and strikingly handsome Pole, Stan Rybarz, and their bizarre courting ritual begins. What follows is an astounding story of adventure, passion and risk taking, as Stan wins Beverley and tackles the jungles of New Guinea to construct roads and precarious bridges. It tells of a complex and courageous man, and of a rich and beautiful country struggling to come to terms with approaching independence.
Both humorous and shocking, this memoir tells the story of a 16-year-old model trying to make it during the 1980s, when the supermodel phenomenon reached a hysterical peak. She is one of the hundreds of B models, those boys and girls who craved a lifestyle of success and glamor, but in the meantime walked the streets in uncomfortable shoes, underdressed and hungry for work, love, and a decent meal.
