She's written three books about her adventures, with the newest one being "Into Africa With a Smile". The book is about her trip to Africa in 1974, a time when few people visited Africa, let alone on a motorcycle. She travelled around for 15 months, experiencing numerous breakdowns and even malaria. And despite all the setbacks, she still kept a smile on her face.
