Postcards From Midlife

How to lead a more rebellious life: lessons in taking risks from explorer Robyn Davidson

Trish and Lorraine meet the legendary Australian writer and explorer Robyn Davidson, whose international best seller Tracks recounted her 1700 mile solo walk across the outback with just her dog and four camels for company, and was also made into a Hollywood film. Now at 74, in a beautiful and moving conversation, she looks back on her unconventional life, from passionate and heartbreaking love affairs and choosing not to have children, to her mother’s suicide and building a life and identity from ‘scraps’. Plus where and how to travel solo as a woman. Plus: Rant incoming - what we really thought about that Panorama HRT documentary.
