The Best Women's Travel Writing 2005: True Stories from Around the World (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781932361186)

Since publishing its original edition of A Woman's World in 1995, Travelers' Tales has been the recognized leader in women's travel literature, and with the launch of the annual series The Best Travelers' Tales in 2004, the obvious next step was an annual collection of the best women's travel writing of the year. This title is the first in an annual series--The Best Women's Travelers' Tales--that presents stimulating, inspiring, and uplifting adventures from women who have traveled to the ends of the earth to discover new places, peoples, and facets of themselves. The points of view and perspectives are global in reach, and themes are as eclectic as in all of our books, including stories that encompass spiritual growth, hilarity and misadventure, high adventure, romance, solo journeys, stories of service to humanity, family travel, and encounters with exotic cuisine.
In this book you will:
- Discover the sex appeal of a big butt in Senegal
- Become a door-to-door art saleswoman in Madrid and uncover Spanish generosity
- Learn what it means to serve in Mother Teresa's mission in Calcutta
- Discover a universe of meaning in a simple Parisian restaurant
-Watch your mother transform before your very eyes in a classroom in Laos...and much more.
