Excerpt
Someone once told me that traveling was like reading 10,000 books, and that thought had always captivated me, especially considering how much I love to read! The truth is she was right. Traveling was an opportunity to look into unfamiliar lives and experience it with all my senses: the sight of the blue-green sea, the sound of singing which lifted my heart when it had been crushed, the taste of hot tea and scones which melted in my mouth and thawed out my fingers on bitterly cold Scottish days.
