Coral started travelling alone at the age of sixty. She began by crossing Bass Strait, south of where she lives in Melbourne, Australia, to explore the island of Tasmania. After four road trips around her beloved 'Tassie', she ventured further afield, across the Tasman Sea to New Zealand, with its fiords, glaciers, volcanic valleys and its 'Lord of the Rings' trail.
With these experiences under her belt, she took the leap to the other side of the world. England provided Dickens, the Brontes and Shakespeare; medieval cities and West End theatres; a malevolent rental car, indecipherable road signs and menacing roundabouts.
Coral's 'Planning to the Nth' series describes the challenges, pitfalls and and joys of a woman, 'of an age', discovering the world, at last.
Coral also writes short stories and has been published in TNT Magazine, the Weekend Australian newspaper, Flash Fiction Magazine and the Age newspaper.
