Murni – or I Gusti Ayu Kadek Murniasih, to go by her full name – was a Balinese artist who shrugged off all the norms and expectations that life chucked at her and instead made art with total abandon.

As she cycled away from Vancouver airport, “I was like ‘See you in six months!’,” Cook says. “Not having the weight of bricks and mortar and possessions was so liberating.” By the time she arrived in La Paz, Bolivia, 111 days later, she knew, “this is how I want to live my life.” Now 67, she has been itinerant ever since, and has cycled 24,000 miles.Tell us: has your life taken a new direction after the age of 60?
