I was contacted by Emily Hatfield on behalf of The Hendri Coetzee Trust to help let folk know about “Living The Best Day Ever”.

Dear Phil,

I am writing to you on behalf of The Hendri Coetzee Trust. I am not sure of knew Hendri or have heard of his story but he was the kayaker killed by a croc in the Congo in December 2010. We have just finished finalising his autobiography for him in his honour and we are now looking for channels to promote it and market it to the whitewater community. A friend of mine Thom Brown recommended approaching you.

The book is on sale via livingthebestdayever.com and is the perfect present for any paddler or non paddler for christmas. Please would you help us by posting something on your blog, Facebook page, twitter, anywhere you feel may get viewed.

This is the true story of the greatest African explorer you have never heard of. Equipped with a core philosophy and a lot of luck, Hendri Coetzee embarks on a series of increasingly outrageous adventures in search of the best day ever.

Through these harrowing and often hilarious experiences he is subjected to grueling challenges in the most unique and compelling classroom on planet Earth: the rivers and jungles of Africa.

I agree, after reading about Hendri on the net I have ordered my copy of the Living The Best Day Ever.
