All Who Wander May Not Be Lost But I Usually Am: Stories From America's Heartland and International Skies

My stomach churns, and adrenaline keeps my mind racing, making sleep slow to come. Even when I drift off, I wake up often. I am always a bundle of nerves before a new travel adventure begins. All Who Wander May Not Be Lost But I Usually Am captures the spirit of a traveler who often stumbles through uncertain moments while exploring the world around us. This book gathers stories from trips I have taken over the past fourteen years. As a Certified Nurse Anesthetist, the first adventure in this book depicts a medical mission trip to Guatemala. Readers without a medical background may find some of that chapter's terminology unfamiliar, but the rest of the journeys are not medically focused. Come join me from the comfort of your Lazy Boy to share in the highs and lows of travel domestically as well as step into a few foreign experiences. If you have always wanted to travel but could not, or if travel is no longer possible for you, I hope these stories let you experience those moments from the safety of your home. Happy reminiscing.
