Lucy Rayner
Acerca de esta escucha
Ishbel Rose Holmes was adrift and alone when she set out to bicycle across the world. She was pedaling across Turkey when a street dog, Lucy, crossed her path and changed her life forever.
Ishbel did not want anything or anyone to slow her down, but when she witnessed Lucy attacked by other dogs, Ishbel rescued her - forming a deep bond between the pair. Ishbel recognized her own vulnerability in her new canine friend and launched a heartfelt mission to find Lucy a home and give her a happy life.
Their adventures took them to the Syrian border and into the hearts of everyone who met them. People around the world who followed the story on Ishbel's blog, World Bike Girl, watched as Lucy's unconditional love broke down the wall around Ishbel's heart. When Lucy died unexpectedly in her arms, Ishbel realized that Lucy had found a home after all - with her, and that Ishbel had been Lucy's happy ever after.

Using the story of the author's life as the backdrop, she offers a better understanding of how our childhood experiences impact us, how we become shame-based, and what can happen when we do, and how resiliency, compassion, and forgiveness are what it takes to heal from the vicissitudes we all face in life.

In search of adventure, 29-year-old Conor Grennan traded his day job for a year-long trip around the globe, a journey that began with a three-month stint volunteering at the Little Princes Children's Home, an orphanage in war-torn Nepal. Conor was initially reluctant to volunteer, unsure whether he had the proper skill, or enough passion, to get involved in a developing country in the middle of a civil war. But he was soon overcome by the herd of rambunctious, resilient children.

Finding Gobi is the miraculous tale of Dion Leonard, a seasoned ultramarathon runner who crosses paths with a stray dog while competing in a 155-mile race through the Gobi Desert in China. The lovable pup, who would later earn the name Gobi, proved that what she lacked in size, she more than made up for in heart, as she went step for step with Dion over the Tian Shan Mountains and across massive sand dunes, keeping pace with him for 77 miles.

I’m tough, as a Vet tech you have to be. This was too much. It’s wonderfully written & told. Beautiful & exciting . A tale of much more than a dog. But I wish I’d stopped with the last 25 minutes.

Appreciated a display of “the best” and “the worst” of humanity between species, religions, cultures + sexes.
No true resolutions or answers become of this documentary….Yet, personal activism, empathy + action is the message of hope.

Beautifully Written and Narrated
Beautifully written story of a woman in her first year of cycling the world. A stray street dog starts following her somewhere in Turkey. After the dog was viciously attacked by a pack of other street dogs, Ishbel seeks care for the dog. She discovers that there is a dog sanctuary a few hundred miles away, so sets out cycling with Lucy in tow.
This is a true story and told so lovingly and brutally honestly by World Bike Girl herself. Don't do like I did and go and read her blog before finishing the book...it will spoil it. Go on the journey with her and Lucy. I highly recommend.
