“Love the CD, so much variety of music and musical talent; you must be very chuffed with the outcome”
Pete Jermy (musician/bookshop owner)
“Travels With My Suitcase is filled with great yarns and insights. I loved it. Delivered non-sequentially, but with a recurring theme of Teresa’s passion for life, people, and always music as the glue. What a fearless adventurer and earth warrior. I can thoroughly recommend the audio version with the author’s own voice full of inflection and expressions, as if she’s sitting across from me with a cup of tea telling me some stories and lessons from her never dull life.”
Wendy Moles (musician/event manager)

A musician on the road travels with an ear to the ground. Tales of suitcases, sculptures and instrumental characters collide in a compendium of discoveries across the island state of Tasmania, to southern Europe and back. A travelogue memoir with lyrics and jottings from a community artist and a sub plot – There is no Planet B
Read the book and listen to the music on this album as an integrated experience telling the stories of “Travels with my suitcase”
Travelling can become an obsession, as can music. Put the two together and it’s a recipe for adventure with a capital A. Before COVID hit, Teresa took off to Europe in search of fabulous music and instrumental characters on the world stage … and found them.
Here are anecdotes from the road along with observations from the trundler of a suitcase with a message: There is no Planet B.
The words are enhanced by nine tracks of original music composed by the author, which are integrated seamlessly into the chapters. These 8 songs and one instrumental track were written to correspond with various anecdotes in the book, bringing another level of atmosphere to the stories.
The album of music accompanies the printed book in the form of CD and download card, while the audiobook marries the narrative with the soundtrack.
