About Rae Hadley
Currently UK-based, Rae fell hard in love with Central Asia, The Caucasus, Mongolia, India, and China during her circuitous solo cycle tour—crossing tropical rainforests, high-altitude deserts, towns and cities, and meeting wonderful people. Culture, history, art, and human psychology fuel her mind, and Rae is a passionate, if not always proficient, linguist. She is also a happy benefactor to the cat and dog populations in all the countries she visits.
