The Diary of an Adventurous Australian Overseas Traveller
Read about Annes’ adventures on her first overseas trip in 1974-1975, and her latest overseas trip in 2013.
Anne travelled widely, met lots of interesting people, and enjoyed all of her travelling experiences. She left Australia, as an inexperienced 20 year old traveller, and returned home much more knowledgeable and experienced, knowing that she would undertake more travel in the future.
Now, she is taking the opportunity to share with you, her first trip, from forty years ago to Britain, Europe and Scandinavia, along with her more recent trip to the United Kingdom and Hong Kong.
Whilst Anne typically was a young Australian, who set out to see other countries, her diary shows her ability to pack so much into her travels. Her 2013 adventure highlights the fact that she has not lost this attribute.
Anne’s grannie immigrated from Glasgow, Scotland in 1912. She was delighted to meet with her Scottish relatives and to visit places associated with her grannie. She also met her penfriends in Scotland and Finland in 1975 for the first time.
When you read her diaries, you will feel that Anne has brought her travels alive, and that you are in fact travelling with her. You will wonder at her stamina, and her ability to connect with the people she meets along the way.
Enjoy her adventures.

Anne Field was born in Newcastle, Australia and lived here until 1971, when she moved to Sydney. She completed her education at Macquarie University, and began work as a Social Science teacher in 1976. Anne retired from teaching in late 2011 and is now able to concentrate on writing books.

In 1991, Anne was elected as a Councillor to Rockdale City Council, and in 1999 she was elected as a Councillor to Kogarah City Council. She served on many Committees, and gained extensive knowledge of her local community.

Anne has always had an adventurous nature. This is reflected in her travels, both within Australia, and overseas. Her love of local history and horse racing are combined in her research on Moorefield Racecourse, Kogarah, Sydney (1888-1951) Likewise, her Bottle Overboard Story in the Southern Ocean and out of Eden, reflects her love of adventure.

In 2006, Anne received the Edna Ryan Award for Feminist Activity in the Government sphere. In 2006, Anne featured in the inaugural edition of The Who's Who of Australian Women. She has featured in subsequent editions. On March 29, 2012 Anne was presented with a Notice of Motion from the Legislative Council, NSW Parliament "for services to the community and to education."
