Jeremy Roberts might have a fairly ordinary life in Napier these days, but that wasn't always the case.
About 12 years ago, at 50 years old, Jeremy upped and left his day job, packed a suitcase and headed to Bali, teaching English and busking as a poet.
"That old childhood saying, 'pick what you want from the tree of life' simply not working anymore? Becoming a foreigner in Indonesia might be as good a stab at something new and rewarding, as anything," Jeremy says.
A book about his adventures in another land are laid bare in The Dark Cracks of Kemang: The Bajaj Boys in Indonesia.
Jeremy will be launching his book at Creative Arts Napier (CAN) on Friday, December 2, from 5pm-7pm.
