Jennifer Andrewes

Jennifer is a New Zealand-based writer whose life journey is a testament to resilience, transformation, and an unstoppable spirit. As a child, Dunedin-born Jennifer spent time living in France kicking off a life-long love affair with the country. An avid walker, Jennifer first joined a local walking group to meet people and explore the local countryside, while working as a language teaching assistant in Dunkerque. Thirty years later, she's hooked! A communications professional, she has worked in tourism and government roles both here and in the UK, as well as undergoing stints as a freelance travel writer. Her blog on the family's French adventure www.myparallellives.com was widely enjoyed and it was prompting from readers that led Jennifer to write a book about the family's experience: Parallel Lives: Four seasons in the French Pyrenees. Her subsequent posts about her pilgrimage adventures are widely read and it was encouragement from followers that have led Jennifer to write a book about her Camino experiences.
