Audrey Sutherland was raised in California and has lived in Hawaii since 1952. She raised her four children as a single mother, supporting her family as a school counselor. In 1962 she decided to tour the coast of Molokai by swimming it - and towing along an inflatable raft with supplies. She has ever since been an inveterate water traveler, during the past several decades in inflatable kayak because it's transportable, light enough for her to handle comfortably and relatively inexpensive.
My Paddling North book is now dog-eared and written in, and I will quote Audrey Sutherland for her industriousness and inquisitive nature, and because she's the type of person I'd like to be in my eighties (and now). Decades of life are compressed here, not to be processed or worked through, but honestly experienced in an organic way--because moving through the natural world also lets her mind wander back in time and place. -- SheExplores.com
