'Experiences are Unique; Reactions are Universal'In a previous account, the Misfit took on Europe, with a focus on expatriates in Germany. That story is related in Misfits Abroad: Adventures in Love, Language, and Foreign Lands. Now, in Misfits Further Abroad: People and Adventures Around the World, author Martine Robinson Beachboard embarks on adventures farther abroad and further afield. The vignettes presented here introduce people and places encountered when she ventured into Asia and parts of the African continent. These travels taught her to appreciate religions, landscapes, cuisines, and architecture in another corner of the world. It is the author’s hope that these stories will enrich readers’ lives too.Misfits 1 is more amusing, while Misfits Further may be more culturally informative. Countries discussed include: Egypt, India, Jordan, Kosovo, Morocco, Pakistan, Turkey, United Arab Emirates, and Vietnam.Readers have commented on Misfits Abroad:'I picked it up by happenstance at a local bookstore, and I’m very glad I did. Ms. Beachboard has a real knack for storytelling, and her book hits just the right notes.''I found myself chuckling and thinking, ’I would’ve done the same!’ in some of her humorous examples.''I cherished Martine’s insights into human behavior. She has an astute sense of observation and delivers that experience in every comedic vignette.'Martine’s Misfits Abroad books can be enjoyed in any order and are available in multiple formats.
