WHY I PICKED IT: Picked up at Word On The Street Book Fair
ELAPSED TIME: 10 Days
RATING: Very Good
This book, 10 essays detailing first experiences in the
developing world, is fantastic. It
offers a reminder on ways to interact with those who live in the developing world,
on the value that a young Westerner offers, on the challenges of fitting in
“there” and the resulting challenge of fitting in “here.” It’s about finding your path, and about the
friendships that form.
I highly recommend this book to … gosh, anybody who has
worked in the developing world (the book will serve as a reminder of your
(first) experiences. Or anybody who
wants to work there (to see how others have done it). Or anybody who has a passion for learning
about other people and their experiences.
Or anybody. (I really enjoyed
this book!)
