<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>One middle-aged woman with no money, three suitcases, a big dream, and a desire to see it all, sets out to live her best solo life.<br><p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>One middle-aged woman with no money, three suitcases, a big dream, and a desire to see it all, sets out to live her best solo life.<p>Calling on memories from her teen years when she lived in Rome, Italy, Maria Vano writes <strong>openly and honestly</strong> about making the decision to leave everyone and everything, to return to the country she once knew. She had no house-sale proceeds, no pension, no profit sharing and no savings, but decided there was no better time than being<strong> 44 years old</strong> to take off with a one-way ticket and leave it all behind.</p><p>Maria takes you with her through nearly 20 years of travel and life across 8 countries. This is no tale of paradise, but reveals both the dizzying highs and terrifying lows of long-term solo travel and moving to new countries on a whim, sight-unseen. Maria opens her heart through the joys, hurts, loves, losses, laughter, tears, and even defies death in a foreign country. For fun, she throws in a lot of wine and food while she's at it.</p><p>In the later years of her travels, she confronts what it's like to travel while unknowingly battling the devastating and grave disease, Cushing's Syndrome-and finding the courage and strength to get back on her feet and move again during recovery, thumbing her nose at the naysayers who said, "you can't," with a hearty "Just watch me."</p><p>Maria also shares the highlights and joys of discovery, and how she made it through the dark times without fear. Come along with her on a crazy journey full of kindness, laughter, warmth... and truth.</p>
