Eleanor Hamby and Dr. Sandra Hazelip, the two irresistible women who have become known on social media as the travelling grannies, deliver a book of life lessons drawn from their late-in-life friendship, and the daring and transformational adventures they've undertaken. Together, they have traveled to twenty countries since they turned 80. Life on the road at their age has given them essential wisdom, and they have written this reflection with the goal of sharing their affirming and joyous insights with the world. Ellie and Sandy's life lessons come from the intersections of their discoveries about aging, their shared faith, and their deep friendship. The photographer and doctor duo immerse themselves in the communities they visit, always learning more about themselves and the world around them. Boldly and independently traveling without a guide or staying at resorts, the fullness of Eleanor and Sandra's lives makes for a book you can return to in the face of loss, uncertainty, and to inspire new beginnings.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. It's Never Too Late for the Next ActIt's Never Too Late for the Next ActWhen Ellie and Sandy met after becoming empty-nesters and then widows, their late-in-life friendship blew open a new, exciting chapter of life- living fearlessly and adventurously. But they never could've imagined it would also propel them-in their 80s-to accidental fame, going viral on social media as the 'travelling grannies,' inspiring people young and old across cultures when they went around the world in 80 days. While still working full-time, they've adventured the world for decades-always on the unbeaten path and a budget ($29.00/per night.) Their adventures transformed their outlooks, galvanized and deepened their friendship and their faith, and instilled a positivity that has proven wildly contagious. They've found purpose in the fact that people around the globe are inspired by their friendship and wrote this book to share their adventures with readers and to invite them to make their own.From the icy shores of Antarctica, the deep bush in Zambia on Medical Missions (without electricity or plumbing, just the restorative power of meaningful service and human connection), to the breathtaking night sky above the Syrian desert, life on the road has gifted Ellie and Sandy essential wisdom. Here We Go expands on the joyous message of hope that launched them into the spotlight, delivering tales of their exploits, advice and inspiration for anyone who aims to live with grace and gusto, connect authentically with others despite differences, and embrace our potential for joy and love.To quote Ellie and Sandy, "Make some plans and live!"
