I wrote this book in 1999. At that time, the year 2000 was approaching, and there was much talk in the media about the impending end of the world. We had visited a small block of land in the rain forest. It housed a humble tin shed with no power or other council utilities such as running water or sewerage. It is such a peaceful, quiet place. I began thinking how much I would love to just stay there away from the hustle and bustle of the city where I lived and worked. The reason I have published this book now is because I have time to do so. Time I did not have while I was working full-time. I am now retired after thirty-three years as an office administrator aged sixty. I enjoy camping and spending time with my grandchildren.
