Christina Gillgren’s A Little Bit of MisChief, a light hearted, whimsical account of seven years spent sailing from Australia to the Mediterranean and beyond, will be launched at the Royal Malta Yacht Club tonight at 7pm.

Gillgren’s journey, similar to the route many Maltese migrants would have taken but in reverse, is sprinkled with exhilarating experiences that include sandstorms at sea and tropical water spouts, heart-pounding moments with pirates, swimming with whale, sharks and dolphins in exotic waters, generous characters and, of course, lasting friendships and laughter along the way.

The author will also give a brief talk about the book.
