Description

At the age of 22 Jane Adams travelled from her London home in the swinging 60s to Nigeria with VSO (Voluntary Service Overseas) for what proved to be a life changing experience. As a trained teacher she was sent to a boys' boarding school in the rural north west of Nigeria where she was the only female on the staff. Learning to live in a very different culture and making do with what few resources were available, she met many unforgettable characters along the way and built strong bonds with the boys she taught. Those sixteen months in the 'bush' were challenging, exhausting and unexpectedly joyful.

Author Biography:

Jane Adams has been an educator all her life, starting in Nigeria and then moving to the UK, Jordan and the Arabian Gulf. Working in different cultures has been both a challenge and a delight. She now lives quietly in England.
