Synopsis

Tanya’s life story is an adventure that takes us around the globe, from a colourful childhood in Malta and Singapore, to Swinging Sixties America where she escaped the clutches of a cult-like magazine crew and landed a plum job at Washington DC’s iconic Mayflower Hotel. She had a nervous breakdown at age 12, a brush with London’s notorious Kray twins, kept a confidence with regard to Princess Diana, met with astronaut Buzz Aldrin in Rio, President Carter in Hawaii and Mother Teresa in India. At the core of Tanya’s memoir is an incredible love story. She married her handsome, charismatic husband, Allan, five times and they were together 42 years, running hotels and developing some of the world’s top spa resorts such as Champneys Tring and Chiva-Som in Thailand. Tanya’s positive spirit helped her through the hugely difficult six years following Allan’s terminal cancer diagnosis and the trauma of his passing. Her frank and intimate sharing of her experiences, what she learned and how she grew from these painful events will resonate with anyone who’s experienced loss. Allan’s remaining connection with Tanya after his passing is nothing short of extraordinary. In her mid-60s Tanya decided to take on a challenge every two years while raising money for charity. These included a skydive, a solo walk of the 500-mile Camino de Santiago and circumventing the globe in 80 days with her granddaughter. Tanya’s story is one of remarkable belief, grit and determination, with lashings of fun, glamour and romance. Her attitude to life helped carve a path to the very top of her profession and to navigate personal heartbreak and tragedy. She hopes the many valuable lessons she’s learned along the way will inspire others to live their very best life.
