Julie Salisbury had a spectacular epiphany in 1998 that made her walk away from her husband, her high-powered job, and her Victorian house in the UK, and exchange them for a backpack and a dream. She spent the next seven years living in South Africa, Madagascar, Tanzania, Kenya, on an Indian Ocean desert island, in Thailand, Malaysia, Mexico, and Canada, learning from the world community. Julie tells the story of her seven years as a nomad of the world with humour, poignancy, and intelligence, making this dream seem attainable for any woman. She travels unconventionally and without a plan, facing up to her own fears of loneliness and vulnerability. A testament to human spirit and courage, this is a very personal account of discovering individual self. In this second edition of her book, Salisbury reflects back, seven years later, retracing her steps to understand how writing the book actually led to discovering her true purpose.
