This woman annoys me to no end; however, her writing style was actually pretty good and despite my best efforts to stop reading I couldn't and ended up finishing the book within a few days. This is a travel memoir of sorts about a woman at the crossroads in her life making the decision to face her fear of being alone. When her husband decides he needs some space she decides to make the best of it and starts traveling. The book chronicles several years of her life where she lives in various countries and tries to fit in with the cultures. I liked her descriptions of the people she met and the food she ate--I just didn't like that she seemed so needy all the time. But having said that--I would love to have the courage to travel and and become a part of this world on a bigger level--leaving a lasting mark in different places.
