Description
Book Synopsis: A profound and fore-telling childhood dream eventually leads to a lifestyle of travel adventures and misadventures for this intrepid traveler. Follow the author through a range of alluring, often exotic countries in the 1980s and 1990s when travelers lacked the advantages of cellphones and digital technology. From dancing with indigenous tribes in the Amazon Rainforest to riding the Trans Siberian Express in it's entirety of eleven time zones during the height of the Soviet Empire collapse, the author takes you on often humorous, sometimes dangerous, and at times nearly deadly adventures. The landscape of the author's own life is dramatically altered after contracting malaria following a trip to Kenya in 1988, leaving her fighting for her life. Left with a limb amputation and emotional scars, the author battles her way back to work as a flight attendant and rediscovers the lifestyle of a traveler, only now with a disability and an even more meaningful purpose.
