Mia Kankimäki quits her job, sells her house and travels to Africa to see how Karen Blixen, a Danish writer who owned a coffee plantation in the 1920s and hunted wild animals on the savannah, lived. She is inspired by the brave travelers and discoverers of the 19th century who wandered alone through the most dangerous places on the planet. In Florence, Mia searches for forgotten paintings by Renaissance artists who created grandiose canvases, despite all the restrictions of the era. In Japan, she follows in the footsteps of Yayoi Kusama, the most famous artist of our time. Rediscovering the world's undeservedly forgotten names of women, on her journey, Mia learns to live an inspired life and finds her voice as a writer. This book is an exciting journey through a variety of countries and eras, showing what women are capable of, free from stereotypes and conventions!
