Running Away from Home

Jane de Teliga had it all - a glamorous and fulfilling career as style director for Australia's best-loved magazine, a happy family life and a beautiful home in Sydney's stunning eastern suburbs.�But when empty nest syndrome struck, she suddenly found herself wondering what it all meant.� Who was she when she wasn't being defined by her career and motherhood?� To find out, she did what many people long to do - sold the house, left her job and went to try her luck in Paris.�Along the way she discovered meditation, yoga and the inescapable truth of the Buddhist saying: 'Everywhere you go, there you are'.�
From her beginnings in the art world to her current work teaching and inspiring the next generation of fashion stylists, Jane has led a rich and varied life.�This memoir, beautifully illustrated with photographs from Jane's life in fashion and her travels, is the story of one woman's journey from the heady world of fashion to a simpler and happier existence - the story of a woman taking a step into the unknown and finding herself in the process.�
