After the death of her fiancé, 28-year-old Shannon did not understand how to live further. Together they traveled half the world: Australia, Europe, China. Young and full of hope, they were going to get married and live happily ever after. However, an accident on a beach in Thailand disrupted their plans. To cope with the loss, the Californian went on a trip to Eastern Europe alone. Without knowing either the language or customs of these countries, she visited Slovakia, Poland, Bosnia, Croatia, Romania and Bulgaria. I saw with my own eyes the horrors of concentration camps and, thanks to a happy accident, I did not end up on a plane hijacked by terrorists when flying from Israel to Turkey. This book is a sincere diary, full of pain and light sadness. It's about how you can always find the strength to move on.
