50 Camels and She’s Yours<\/em> by Jane Wilson-Howarth<\/a>, Francoise Hivernel, Stephanie Green, Sally Haisleden and Seeta Siriwardena.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Travel comes with challenges as well as delights, and travelling women can face some special issues. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The five of us, whose writing has come together in this anthology, have found various means of diffusing awkward situations, and turning tensions around so we enjoy the moment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For Seeta Siriwardena in Egypt it was the kindness of strangers that helped her. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

When Sally Haiselden was cycling back home (to Cambridgeshire) from work (in Khartoum) she pedalled with a small cache of rocks stashed in the little basket on her handlebars, ammunition in case of attack by cycle-hating dogs: her dog rocks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For Stephanie Green and Jane Wilson-Howarth, when Asian linguistics caused bewilderment, laughter was the great bridge-builder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Africa, Fran\u00e7oise Hivernel\u2019s contemplations on her inner journeys led to her greater understanding of what it is to be human.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
