What do you do when you realize the life you've spent seventeen years creating isn't the life you want? An intense and serendipitous relationship spurs a workaholic professional to confront this very question as she approaches the mirror age of forty. The answer author Dana Atkinson finds leads her on a surprising journey into herself, and into the heard of a continent of which she has only dreamed. What she finds is a self she has never met, and a home she has never known.

It amazes me to learn how people live, not the people she met, but the people like herself, before she went on the trip. This book made me realize how weird is the life I'm living and how much more I have to appreciate my approach in life.
The book made me want to go to South Africa and surroundings, but the end was not the end I was expecting, as well as her wish upon a star.. I would have wished for something else, not something so trivial.
All in all a good book with a nice story that we'll keep you entertained.
