The problem with travelling is that wherever you go, there you are.

took about half the book to get into, i realised at the end that i personally was only interested in her life at home and not what was happening abroad?

“A wave of disappointment crashed into me. I sit on the couch, sit with the disappointment until it passes, and when it passes, I rise and smile. A thought glints that maybe this is real love, accepting life as it is”

I loved it. Could really see myself in the character and that nagging self-critical voice in her head. The travel stories were so vivid, and very different to my experiences of solo travel in most part, but as a solo female traveller, I could also relate to a lot of the experiences. The evolution/journey of Natalie was shown beautifully, and I generally found this book to be a balm for the soul. It came to me at the right time too, and I was sad it was over.
Great, accessible and intelligent writing about the human condition.
