During the past 50 years she has visited Peru, Pakistan, Tibet, China, Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, Mongolia, Bhutan, Syria, Jordan, New Zealand, Ecuador, Zimbabwe, South Africa, Russia, and all of Europe. She has paddled the Amazon River, canoed the Mackenzie from Inuvik to Tuktoyaktuk, and walked around Mount Kailash in Tibet. Now in her 80s, she lives in Castlegar, British Columbia.
