Info-dumping causes confusion and fatigue to your brain, which is no bueno. Saying "Forget this" is easier than searching for an eye-catching book cover to click.Some of you might say, "I don't want to read about someone who's worked and lived abroad," or "Who cares!" or "I'm not interested." True, but if you're craving out-of-the-ordinary stories to stimulate your mind, you're in the right place.You don't need to browse on Amazon to get unique and authentic nonfiction/memoir titles because two are at your fingertips. My books on living abroad have interesting facts, strange stories, shocking and giggling moments, plus more. If you're an American, perhaps you'll realize after reading my books that living in the States isn't bad after all. Maybe you'll feel more grateful for the luxuries and conveniences we have too.Why not take a chance?
