Imagine leaving everything you know—your job, family, friends; your country—and setting off on a journey that will take you 20,000 km across the planet to a remote, isolated town where you are not known, have no job and must begin creating your life; would you do it?
"This is brilliant scene setting; what was then, what had been and when you guys arrived, it was just awakening. Awesome story telling! I am still intrigued and want to read more."
"Every time I read this I am amazed by the 'Yes!' attitude and zest for life."
Stephen Outram's new book, The First Five Years, tells the true story of a small English family that left home to go and forge a new life in Australia. Their first five years in the small, isolated town of Port Hedland, which regularly experienced searing heat, cyclones and offered very basic facilities, required courage, guts and the willingness to do whatever it took and not give up on their dreams.
