The Author Ryna is 14 year old and she wrote this book when she was 12. Written in a conversational style, it is about a girl from Stanford who takes a trip across London, South Africa and India and some of the unique places she sees. It is a travelogue about her journey, and some historical things she sees while travelling. Travelling alone and seeing things that she had only read about, opens her eyes to life and what she learns from it.
