We’ve all experienced that surreal situation when you don’t know whether to laugh or cry. Sometimes you do both!

Living away from the place you once called ‘home’ can be exciting, stressful and disorientating—often all at once. Culture shock and homesickness can hit hard exacerbating feelings of displacement and leaving you feeling angry and resentful towards your new location. At times like this, laughter is often the best medicine.

Australian Cath Brew has travelled abroad for most of her life and though now settled in the UK, she has learned to cope with her own challenging emotions by drawing. In this delightful book she shares 100 cartoons of her life and the lives of others, which have helped her to see the funny side of a weird and wonderful life on the move.
