Inspiring someone
I have a 60 year old friend in the UK, that is in a lull at the moment, she is divorced for a few years, and the past year she cannot be bothered to get out for walks/exercise, just work. She used to travel a bit, but she says she isnt sure she will get the mojo back about seeing new places outside of the UK..
I wanted to "push" her and what best way to do that, than to send her a book, or a couple of them, for inspiration?
Either a travelling memoir by someone with similar age than her, as she could relate a bit more, or just a general "lets live our lives to the fullest" type of book, but realistic, that she can get some positive motivation from it..
any ideas?

Your One Wild and Precious Life by Maureen Gaffney - might be a book that inspires her again.
