Through a dozen interconnected stories narrated from each of the countries she lived in, \u003cem\u003eThe Scenic Route\u003c\/em\u003e unfolds like a travel journal, capturing experiences as they happen alongside the questions and reflections they spark.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn this intimate travel memoir, Aviram meditates with a barefoot Buddhist monk in Thailand, sleds down the desert dunes of Peru, channels the fearless passion of flamenco dancers in Spain, and clings to the back of a motorbike through the relentless motion of Vietnam's streets.
