This was such an entertaining, thought-provoking read. I so respect the author for questioning her inherited models of relationship and following her curiosity to investigate partnership in cultures different from her own. Raised Mormon and married in her mid-twenties, the author finds herself torn between the expectations placed on her as a bride and her inner drive to travel the world. She navigates this tension beautifully and finds her way to an authentic combination of love and exploration. My favorite chapters followed her journey on the Camino de Santiago. I definitely caught the hiking bug by the end!
