Retired from a 40-year career in social work, Gerri Almand found her voice in humorous travel writing when her husband insisted they buy an RV and travel the country. The Reluctant RV Wife, Home Is Where the RV Is, and Running from Covid in our RV Cocoon chronicle Gerri’s transformation from initial RV reluctance to an ecstatic embrace of full-time nomadism.
Running from Covid in our RV Cocoon is the humorous story of one couple’s paradoxical journey of both losing and finding freedom during the Covid-19 pandemic. Filled with tips on transitioning to full-time RVing, the author is incredulous that it took a pandemic for her to discover such a glorious lifestyle.
Running from Covid is the WINNER of the 2021 New York City Big Book Awards contest in the Travelogue category.
