You can't help but love Bella for this starry-eyed tale about moving to NYC and living your dreams' NEW WEEKLY
Funny, poignant and astoundingly honest, BITING THE BIG APPLE is for everyone who ever took a risk - or wishes they had.
Bella knew there must be more to life than casual jobs and sitting at home, dreaming about the bright lights. An actor by trade, she bought a one-way ticket to the Big Apple and enrolled against all odds in the prestigious Lee Strasberg Institute. Soon she was falling in love with her own 'Mr Big', meeting the locals and coming to grips with the vagaries of life in that glittering town.
What New York City would offer her, Bella could never has predicted - sometimes scary, mostly cash-strapped, but always exhilerating. She proves that with a little determination and a lot of Down Under pizzazz, even the wildest dreams can come true.
