"Admirable" isn't a word that would have come to my mind.  For a much-better 
account (which also might change your description), I highly recommend 
_Kabloona In A. Yellow Kayak_ by Victoria Jason.  Lyrical and inspirational.  
Mandatory reading for anyone contemplating a trip with someone they don't 
know.
