Produktbeschreibung

Going Solo is an evocative armchair journey around the world aimed at inspiring confidence and courage, not only in travel but in self-exploration, that will have readers itching to hit the road. The author combines an up-close-and-personal experience of the joys and realities of day-to-day travel with insightful observations on expatriate living and the immigrant experience. By inviting a deeper contemplation of the social, historical and spiritual similarities and contrasts discovered along the way, the memoir shows how every outward journey can be a platform towards a truer, more intentional version of ourselves as our old beliefs and priorities are challenged. Contact with unfamiliar environments adds meaning to life by helping us define our values and our place in the world. The memoir concludes with meditations on questions raised and offers travel tips for newbies to help them on their way.

Autorenporträt

As a German-born Australian, Eva is passionate about exploring how the stories of our cultures, history, politics, and people's self-knowledge contribute to their sense of belonging and influence their engagement with their communities. In forty years of traveling, she's hung her hat in two hundred places on five continents and experienced living as an expatriate in China, France, Thailand, Vietnam, and the USA. With a master's degree in linguistics and a diploma in art and design, she's worked as a teacher at both tertiary and secondary level, copy editor, publicist, writer and artist. Since 2007, she's gone solo, traveling light - a small laptop, camera, and water filter take priority over multiple outfits. She describes herself as "a globe-trotting boomer whose curiosity about the world rests only mid-afternoon - for good coffee and a chocolate brownie."
