HEATHER BROOKS-FREER
Heather makes a habit of finding herself in the right place at the right time. This is more of a statement about her philosophy than her timing. She found herself in East Germany when the Berlin Wall came down dining with people who had never met an American. She has eaten blueberry pie alongside locals on a yacht in the Finnish Archipelagos with Russian Vodka smuggled over in the boat's mast. She has had fresh lemonade off the coast of Kenya, sheared sheep in New Zealand, curtsied to the Queen of England, and broken bread with Sir Edmund Hillary and, just as memorably, his wife. If you adopt her philosophy, you will find yourself in her raft this summer - right place, right time.
