About this ebook
Are you a Global Vagabond?
No, but 18-year-old Bria wants to be. In a quest for independence, her neglected art, and no-strings-attached hookups, she signs up for a tour of Central America—the wrong one. Middle-aged tourists are hardly the key to self-rediscovery.
So when Bria meets Rowan, devoted backpacker and dive instructor, and his outspoken sister Starling, she seizes the chance to ditch her group and join them off the beaten path. Bria's a good girl trying to go bad. Rowan's a bad boy trying to stay good. As they travel through Mayan villages and remote Belizean islands, they discover they're both seeking to leave behind the old versions of themselves. The secret to escaping the past, Rowan's found, is to keep moving forward. But Bria realizes she can't run forever. At some point, you have to look back.

I've read this book so many times, and it's now one of my absolute
favorites. And I've read a lot of books. There's just something amazing
about loving a story so much you can read it over and over and never get
tired of it. This book makes me so happy, and also excited. Hopefully I'm
reading this book again someday, but instead of my bedroom I'll be in a
hostel, surrounded by other travelers. Or sitting on the sand of a tiny
island beach. Seriously, read this book.
