WONDERFUL WORLD
Elisa Petrini Sandra Hazelip Eleanor Hamby
Two Grandmas Share Lessons for Living Fearlessly
Life lessons and wisdom from two women whose global adventures as budget travelers reveal how to live fearlessly at any age, how to hold onto joy and gratitude, and the power of female friendship.
Two irresistible women who have become known as the TikTok travelling grannies deliver a book of life lessons drawn from their late-in-life friendship, and the daring and transformational adventures they've undertaken. Together, they have traveled to twenty countries since they turned 80.
Life on the road at their age has given them essential wisdom, and they have written this reflection with the goal of sharing their affirming and joyous insights with the world. Ellie and Sandy's life lessons come from the intersections of their discoveries about aging, their shared faith, and their deep friendship.
The photographer and doctor duo immerse themselves in the communities they visit, always learning more about themselves and the world around them. Boldly and independently traveling without a guide or staying at resorts, the fullness of Eleanor and Sandra's lives makes for a book you can return to in the face of loss, uncertainty, and to inspire new beginnings.
Eleanor Hamby lives in Abilene, Texas and is an international documentary photographer. She has traveled to 107 countries and all seven continents "always with my camera at my side." Hamby maintains a home in Namwianga, Zambia and continues to return there several times each year to direct the Zambia Medical Mission, which includes schools, a hospital, a radio station, and several orphanages. She has three children who have blessed her with grandchildren.
Dr. Sandra Hazelip now limits her practice to patients who are residents in long term care facilities and hospice care. She has served in the past as president of the Texas Geriatric Society. She currently serves as the Medical Director for Windcrest Health and Rehab, and she is one of the physicians for Hospice of the Big Country. She is a mother, a grandmother, and a great-grandmother.
