Chris Herrmann never intended to take a gap year. Certainly not a senior gap year. Life was too comfortable in Perth, Western Australia. Grandchildren were coming along one after another. Living the family dream. But suddenly life threw a spanner in the works. The reality hit. It's not something that just happens to other people. He was now on his own. Life is a journey. Not a destination. He knew that. There were however a hundred reasons why not to do this gap year. To give up his home in one of Perth's most beautiful locations, sell the furniture, sell the car, say goodbye to family and friends. To take off for twelve months backpacking around the other side of the world. What, giving all this up? Surely, you're too old. And what, travelling solo? But his gut feeling kept saying otherwise. Thankfully his gut feeling won out. My Senior Gap Year, The Book, tells his story in his own unique style. From pushing himself out of his own comfort zone. From not knowing a word of Spanish to his humorous attempts to communicate with the people he encountered. Navigating his own way around from one country to another. Experiencing every form of transport from a horse and cart to a five star coach. From sleeping on the floor of a Buddhist temple to a mat in the middle of a jungle. Finding himself left literally penniless in the middle of nowhere in a foreign country. And how his experiences with the people he met, like drugs, waste, terrorism have changed his views. He left with no purpose, other than to step out the door, travel and explore. But then how he turned an opportunity he discovered in the middle of the desert to benefiting charities worth around quarter million dollars. And that was just at the beginning of his journey.My Senior Gap Year. It's never too late.

Cam has raised her daughter Aubrey alone ever since her ex left to join a cult. But now the bond between mother and daughter seems to have disappeared. While Cam is frantic to see Aubrey, a straight-A student, at the perfect college, on a path that Cam is sure will provide her daughter success and happiness, Aubrey suddenly shows no interest in her mother’s plans. Even the promise of an exciting gap year saving baby seals or bringing clean water to remote villages hasn’t tempted her. She prefers pursuing a life with her wrong-side-of-the-tracks football-hero boyfriend and her own secret hopes. Both mourn the gap that has grown between them, but Cam and Aubrey seem locked in a fight without a winner. Can they both learn how to hold onto dreams . . . and when to let go to grasp something better? Sarah Bird’s trademark laugh-out-loud humor joins with the tears that accompany love in a combination that reveals the fragile yet tough bonds of mother and daughter.

This book is a collection of personal stories about a boy who grew up in the countryside. My “I Can” story is the story of a boy born to a single mother and meets his father for the first time while he was a teenager. Despite growing up with challenges to make ends meet; he managed to climb the academic ladder to hold a University degree and patent clothing brand. This is the life story of an achiever-oriented heart that provides lessons that are my life experiences and one may use it as a motivational steering wheel in his or her life. It is about how repeatedly he has shown that he can do irrespective of the insurmountable odds. When he saw American people walking on the moon it was evidence that dreams really work when one or a group of people work on it. He began to associate his ambitions with American Dream_ the belief that anyone, regardless of where they were born or what class they were born into, can attain their own version of success in a society where upward mobility is possible for everyone. It is achieved through sacrifice, risk-taking and hard work, rather than by chance.
