Description
The plan was there was no plan: visit all seven continents, see what happens. Erin Michelson is a high adventuress who lives life on the edge. Giving up a successful business, her stake to a house, and all of her possessions, she decided to just take her money and run.
Surviving swindlers and saints, she struggles to keep her eyes and heart open. Her escapades show us not only how to tackle a mine-field, how to bathe an elephant, and where to find a string of pearls, but also how to make a world of difference to those who need it most—vulnerable women and children.
For two years, she canvases the globe, searching for an authentic experience and the chance to reach out and leave the world, even just a small part of it, a better place.
Meet Erin Michelson, Adventure Philanthropist.
