After many years travelling the world in business storytelling roles, Katie had always expected to write a book, just not this one. She can currently be found at home in Barcelona, wrangling two young boys or learning to kayak to finish Toby's adventure. A mesmerising and poignant story that shares how the sea can bring together people, places and purpose. This is a must-read book not just for sea kayakers, but for anyone looking for inspiration to make the most out of life. * Doug Cooper, author of Scottish Sea Kayaking and coach *

Summary

The kayaking was part of this idea of trying to live as full a life as possible in the time he was given.” Toby completed two-thirds of the challenge. Photo: Michal Madera It’s a storybook really. It paints scenes and hopefully takes people and their imagination out to these wild places. Armchair travel at its best. And I say "armchair" because I was very happy to just read this one, with all its thrills and spills, without feeling the need to go and do it myself. At times, I could practically feel the ocean churning beneath me, and my queasy stomach doing somersaults. A unique and heart-warming adventure, and beautifully written too. Bravo. - Simon Parker, journalist and author of Riding Out They have allowed Katie to deal with her grief and family loss in a uniquely personal way, adding a positive full-stop to a dark chapter.

They started treatment for Meningitis en route to the nearest hospital. He cancelled his interview for his Fellowship from his hospital bed in Swindon. It was quite hard listening to his voice, and also the notebooks smelt of his house and stuff, so some of it, emotionally, was really hard, especially in the beginning. “Tobywas a fun-lovingadventurer really, but also a very normal bloke”.

By this time, he had become a regular fixture with the Jersey Canoe Club, I stayed out of the conversation, but the other group members had no hesitation in offering him a place. He was welcomed with open arms. He joined us in Jersey for a couple of training weekends before the day arrived, and we met in Terminal 5 at Heathrow for our flight to Copenhagen.
