Description
Quarter-life crisis got you like WTF?
Sometimes you need to fall before you can stand tall...
That’s definitely the case as twenty-something John Schnettgoecke finds himself lost, confused, and all sorts of mixed-up as he stumbles past the quarter-century mark. He’s miserably unhappy, completely lost, and haplessly wandering a rather unexciting and boring path. He wanders right into the deepest depths of an intense quarter-life crisis and falls flat on his face somewhere near the equator.
This is the true story of an overly impulsive Millennial who has a pretty epic meltdown smack dab in the middle of his twenties. He reads too many books, listens to way too many podcasts, and spins his wheels without anything to show for it. Desperate and confused, he abruptly quits his job, then flees to Costa Rica intent on “finding himself.â€
What he finds, instead, is a whole lot of bad luck. He meets a girl, wrecks a moped, loses all his money, gets hit by a bus, racks up nearly $750 in debt, and almost breaks his leg. He finds a sloth in his shower, dodges an erupting volcano, and meets a local couple who help him get out of the country.
He returns to the States only 14 days later with a mess of questions, a collection of epic travel stories, and an ear-to-ear smile on his face.
Then, he starts writing.
