I think all of us has right to live our life and she is daring enough to do that. I respect her for that, and there is an inspiration here to learn to live your passion as a happy person you can do lot more, it does not mean that you are not considerate to others but believe me if you are unhappy and adjusting sooner than later you will have bad relations.
I am rather inspired by likes of Stephen Hawkings who fight against all the odds to make it big.
This lady is just a case of knowledge going to wrong minds. Result is for all to see.

Ravi, did you know that when you take an active holiday with our company, most of what you pay for goes to local people helping grow economies. No other holiday style can claim to make a difference to the lives of the grassroots like active holidaying does. What we do at www.ActiveHolidayCompany.com doesn't make us some heroes but we try to make small changes in the lives of local people usually even ignored by their own governments and for that I am proud of what we do through our business!!!!!
