"As a solo female traveler, I was looking forward to reading and had high expectations for Jen's book and she didn't disappoint. First, based on the title, I expected the book to be filled only with happy-go-lucky stories of wanderlust, which many travel books are, but Jen was extremely realistic and shared not only the good, but the bad and the ugly too. Readers need that because this side of traveling is often left out of how-to travel books. You would think that those stories wouldn't inspire someone, but by being realistic and open, Jen would definitely let readers feel like they can overcome anything and travel just like she did. Her personal experience stories are written in a captivating way and Jen's travel tips are very useful and I even learned a few things." - Judge, 27th Annual Writer's Digest Self-Published Book Awards
