About the Book

When life as teachers seemed like an endless treadmill of work and stresses, we decided to do something about the situation. What was needed was a radical upheaval, and a soul searching expedition to find more meaning in life. With the help of a friend, and his trusty slide projector, we chose our destination and, having left our jobs, families and friends behind, we set sail for New Zealand in search of meaning amongst the Kiwis.
About the Author: Jonathan Camm was born in Yorkshire, but grew up and went to school in a tiny village on the edge of Sherwood Forest, home to the legendary Robin Hood and his merry men. He spent most of his childhood having adventures, and playing in the forest with his friends. Jonathan went to the small village primary school and enjoyed this time immensely, and it was here that he first discovered his passion for writing. At age sixteen, Jonathan began his grown up life as a trainee-mining engineer, but soon realised that he wanted a life above ground, and so he became a primary school teacher. He loved being a teacher, and helping children to learn all kinds of things. He spent ten years teaching in schools in the UK, before leaving the UK to teach in several schools in China and Thailand. He enjoyed meeting and teaching children from all over the world, and learning about new cultures, but what he loved more than teaching was writing. Luckily being a teacher gave him lots of opportunities to write, and during his career he wrote many stories and other texts to help his students in their learning. Back in 2001, he set sail on a life-changing backpacking trip around the two main islands of New Zealand, with his then wife, Donna, and fell instantly head-over-heels in love with the country and its people. Twelve years after that amazing and fateful expedition, he wrote his first book, entitled: More to Life? Searching for Meaning Amongst the Kiwis, which he published as an eBook. Jonathan returned to Thailand this summer, after a brief spell teaching in a prestigious international school in Shanghai, and decided that it was time to take a rather more serious approach to his writing. After much thought, and taking an enormous leap of faith, Jonathan finally left the security of his seventeen-year teaching career in order to focus on his passion... writing. He has since begun writing a 26-book series of children's mystery books: The Countdown MysteriesTM, but, after completing the first three books, he has taken a short break in order to publish this second edition of his well received travelogue, More to Life? Searching for Meaning Amongst the Kiwis.
