I thought I can't do this anymore.

Either I'm going to stap her to death.

I need to find another options.

Well, you're just going to have to listen to this episode to really fully understand that one.

But anyway, with her new motorcycle, she rode the deserted early morning streets of London and soon

could take her and it wasn't long before she was taking a break from her 12 hour

days working as a London stockbroker for a true African adventure solo by motorcycle London to Cape Town.

I wish when I was your age I'd done the things that I'd wanted to do and not the things that people

expect me to do and I wish that I'd been braver. That was the catalyst for a

new career and life in Tanzania, Africa.
