Description

Be it backseat driving in Bangladesh, on a police chase in Ethiopia, or tramping through New Zealand on a midlife gap year, join Amy and her British husband "Sir" on their adventures throughout the world. Like a trekker's pack, this collection is stuffed together with humor, yet carefully layered with themes on privilege, maturity, regret, and self-compassion. Spanning more than a decade of her life overseas, follow Amy as she comes to grips with herself, her ego, and growing older in the world, without necessarily growing up.

Author Bio

An international school teacher, Amy currently lives in Mumbai, India with her husband Dave and too many plants. When she isn't visiting family in Texas or England, she spends her summers whitewater kayaking in Bryson City, North Carolina.
