Historia
I started my backpacking days in my late 20s and have not stopped since. I still feel there are so many new places to discover, people to meet, new food to try. When I was a newbie traveler, I made many mistakes, forgot to take essential items, and just made some bad choices. Over the years, through experience and learning from others, I have learned what you need to do to travel as safely as possible, what essential items to take, how to take care of your health, and how to make the most of your trip.

Life is chaotic. But we can choose to live it differently. It doesn’t always feel like it, but we do have the freedom to creatively change the everyday little things in our lives so that our path better aligns with our values and passions. The popular blogger and founder of the internationally recognized Simple Mom online community tells the story of her family’s ongoing quest to live more simply, fully, and intentionally. It’s a risky ride, but it’s worth it - living your life according to who you really are simply takes a little intention. It’s never too late.

Tired of the pace and noise of life near London and longing for a better place to raise their young children, Mary J. MacLeod and her husband, George, encountered their dream while vacationing on a remote island in the Scottish Hebrides. Enthralled by its windswept beauty, they soon were the proud and startled owners of a near-derelict croft house - a farmer’s stone cottage - on “a small acre” of land. Mary assumed duties as the island’s district nurse.

James Marsh's Four Years in the Rockies gives brilliant insight into the life of Isaac P. Rose, a man who forged his own path in the wilderness of the far west. This thrilling account of one mountain man's life at the height of the 19th-century fur industry follows Rose as he overcomes adversity, learns from those around him, and becomes one of the most successful trappers of the Rockies. Four Years in the Rockies is essential listening for anyone interested in the 19th-century fur trade and the adventurers who risked their lives to be part of it.

Historia
The “mountain men” were the hunters and trappers who fiercely strode the Rocky Mountains in the early to mid-1800s. They braved the elements in search of the skins of beavers and other wild animals, to sell or barter for goods. The lifestyle of the mountain men could be harsh, existing as they did among animals, and spending most of their days and nights living and camping out in the great unexplored wilds of the Rockies.

Surprised at how wonderful, useful and insightful!
At first I was expecting this book to be about Abuja, it is not. Check out the chapter headings, it is a FABULOUS compendium of travel tips, stories and cultural insights and experiences from a very well-traveled "citizen of the world!" I learned interesting things about so many places, for example, did you know that only two other countries besides the US use the imperial system of measurement (ounces, miles, inches) while the rest of the world uses the metric system? The most spoken language is not what I expected, and how Americans are perceived in different corners of the world was fascinating to me. Race and ethnicity are touched upon as well as traveling as a female. Every chapter was chock full of helpful advice, information and suggestions. This would be a terrific book for classroom reading, new travelers as well as anyone wanting to travel from the comfort of their armchair. Be forewarned, you may get the travel bug, who wouldn't want to learn about our shared humanity and become a wise and worldly person? Highly recommend it, I have both the print version and audible version.

A great journey with the author
Welcome Back to Abuja Once Again is part memoir, part travel guide, part inspiration especially for the novice traveler. I thoroughly enjoyed hearing how Carol Yee became a world traveler and the role her family played in her love for travel. She also weaves in her family's history and the stories of other travelers she has known. She offers many practical tips for travel along with cultural considerations as we move through the world. While Carol talks about the importance of being flexible and calm when travel plans go awry, this book is also a lovely essay on how to roll with the ups and downs of life whether at home or on a bus in South Africa.

A resource for international living
To change the world you have to change your perspective, and to change your perspective you have to travel to see the world. Welcome to Abuja Once Again helps you to do just that. It is not just a well written book but a resource for anyone willing to open their mind to the transformation that comes from experiencing cultures other than the one they come from. Initially I thought it was a book about the author's experience living in Abuja Nigeria. Carol however went beyond that to taking the reader on a global journey and experience.
