My future is bleak. I shiver at the prospect of having a nine-to-five work routine, a white-collar husband, a thirty-year mortgage, and a mountain of diapers to keep myself entertained. It is a dream of every girl in my town, a sensible dream, but for me, it feels like shackles and chains.
All I've ever wanted was to be free, leave this suffocating den of drudgery and travel the world. This desire is secret, burning, and... impossible. Not in this lifetime, not when my fate is sealed.
Yet when a coffee-reader's divination sets the most unusual events in motion, I embark on a journey with no return. I may lose a lot on the way... But I may gain MYSELF.
Inspired by the author's nomadic lifestyle, this contemporary quest for meaning explores the ups and downs of being an ex-pat in Turkey, Costa Rica, Colombia, Hong Kong, Malaysia, and Thailand.
Because home is not a place but a state of mind. And love is a story with a Happy Ever(ywhere) After.
WHAT REVIEWERS ARE SAYING
Elena Leman's words tugged at my heart, filled me with hope, and cut me with the pain and loneliness of self-discovery. Danielle Lori, Author of Made Series
An "Eat, Pray Love" but with a different spin. Anna Rova, CLAIMED Podcast Founder
Happy Ever(ywhere) After is, at its core, a love story. And by that, I mean love of exploration, love of new experiences, love of dance, love of foreign lands, and yes, even some romantic story-lines are threaded throughout. Thomas O., Goodreads Reviewer
A truly wonderful and intimate journey that made me smile, laugh and think deeply about the decisions we make and what drives us to explore the world. Iwona Orlowska, Goodreads Reviewer
