KazMainea! An International Adoption Memoir: How our crazy journey from Maine to Kazakhstan led us to the Good Life we never knew we wanted.
Mike & Heidi Warren Vayda
We’re alone in Kazakhstan at midnight with thousands of dollars strapped to our bodies. Maybe foreign adoption is a mistake.
An Adoption Story… In 2004, Heidi & Mike adopt two children from a mysterious country few Americans have ever seen. Along the way, they eat horse, get parasites, and survive scoldings and survelliance. Always on a need-to-know basis-yet, apparently, never needing to know-they careen from one bewildering day to the next. In the end, they learn to love a quirky culture and bring two remarkable little strangers home. And they blogged it all ….and a Lot More. Today, those remarkable little strangers are grown. Heidi & Mike revisit their adoption blog-and their lives-with the perspective of time. The result is KazMainea: a candid, humorous and poignant story about adoption and its affects, then and now. KazMainea is the tale of a journey that gives this American couple the Good Life they never knew they wanted.Loaded with pictures and useful tips on travel, food and family, you’ll love KazMainea.
Come along on this trip of a lifetime!
