Don't Call Me Mrs Rogers: Love, Loathing and Our Epic Drive Around the World

By: Paige Parker

Narrated by: Paige Parker

At the turn of the millennium, American-born Paige Parker and investment guru Jim Rogers spend three years—1,101 days to be exact—driving over six continents in their 'sunburst yellow' coupe and trailer, ultimately setting a Guinness World Record. During the epic journey, Paige's world view is turned upside down, eventually leading her and her family to their ideal home in Singapore. On the road trip, she meets women from every walk of life, inspiring monks in China, boy soldiers in Angola and oppressive patriarchy in too many countries, yet she walks away with a profound faith in humankind. She now wants to pass the lessons from the road to her two daughters, to women everywhere and to all intrepid travellers. © 2018 by Paige Parker.

The author's narrative is so descriptive You feel like you're on the journey with her.

I so enjoyed listening to this book for a variety of reasons. firstly, as an investor I had been familiar with Jim Rogers various international motorcycle tours and such but I did not realize that he and his wife Paige had achieved a Guinness world record for the most country visited by car. this accomplishment took them through extraordinarily dangerous places and lasted over 4 years if memory serves me. I have also read a sample of the book but I prefer the audio version done in Paige 's voice. as a southerner myself the tenor of her voice reminds me of family and home. I could listen to that voice all day. In fact I have some times used the audible version of this voice to quiet my mind before going to bed. So I have reread the book a couple of times. Thanks to you both for sharing your adventure with us.
