In this autobiography, author Blair Farish takes a charming journey through the exciting travel adventures he has experienced. The Frolicking Physio tells tales that span from his childhood near the small village of Dunscore in southern Scotland to his beloved country home near Cranbrook in the Rocky Mountains of British Columbia. Enjoy his escapades as a wee Boy Scout, a country cycling mailman, and his nine years as a British Army physiotherapist. Travel with Farish through exotic and exciting locations in Malaysia, Vietnam, Australia, and Germany. Follow the immigrant from Ontario to Alberta, and then finally to paradise in the Rocky Mountains where he now lives. His three uncles, Joe, Bill, and Dick prove to be an inspiring triumvirate of support for a small boy without a father.Now retired after spending forty-five years in a rewarding career in his hospital and clinic physiotherapy practice, he enjoys life with his wife, Maureen, at their home just outside Cranbrook. The view of the sun rising over Mount Fisher makes the enviable environment for writing these wee stories for all who love a wee bit of humour, travel, and adventure.
