ADVENTURE IS CALLING.

 

Take My Breath Far Away is more than just a memoir; it's an invitation into the wild. Alice Abyss reveals six years of her life traveling solo across four continents. This enchanting book will take you SCUBA diving in the Middle East, camping with leopards on African riverbanks, and into the mystical sites of Southeast Asia. Hear volcanoes rumble. Feel waves crash over your body. Hold your breath in the deep. Find animals on safari. Readers may enjoy black-and-white photos from around the world at the beginning of each chapter.

 

Alice Abyss traveled slowly, so each chapter gives you an immersive look into remote corners of the globe. Like every traveler before her, Alice dances between fear and faith. Come with Alice as she faces down the things that scare her, then pushes herself as close as she can to their dangerous edges. Readers will learn to love the great unknown.

 

Alice hopes that Take My Breath Far Away will inspire readers to test the limits of their own individuality and personal choice. Even so, who is a traveler without places to go? While Take My Breath Far Away is the story of a girl becoming a woman, it’s also a poetic love letter to all the places she has been.

WILL YOU ANSWER?
