In every country that I have passed through, I have experienced the kindness and generosity of strangers. This talk covers experiences in all 42 countries that I have traveled through as a child and as an adult. As I go through my timeline, I hop from one country to another; from one continent to another. As Mr & Mrs Beauchamp of Switzerland told me when I was 17 years old: 'Tracy, you don't need to thank us, but pay forward. What we do for you today, you must PayForward to another person you meet who needs a kindness' A book accompanies this talk, and a lottery number system is used to select which stories are told.

About Tracy Shipley

Born in Dulwich, London, although my family hail from Christchurch, Dorset. I began my traveling days in Nigeria, at the age of 2 1/2 and have since travelled to over * 42 countries * staying various lengths of time from a lunch to 5 years. I have written up an account of my travel escapades around India & I have published a book on Incidences an Co-incidences whilst traveling alone both in the UK and overseas. For the Swimfun Experience: I qualified as a professional swim teacher in 1986 and have written The Swimfun trilogy (Amazon) adults to use as a fun guide so they can enjoy spending time in the water with their children aged from 5 weeks to 9 years. The talks are delivered with lots of enthusiasm mainly aimed at adults, and for schools year 5 upwards with time for questions. Hopefully, they are there to inspire everyone to follow their dreams - whatever they may be. I am currently based in Dorchester, Dorset.
