This memoir is the true story of an immigrant working mother whose journey led to an unintentional long-term vacation to the United States of America. Her story is filled with a myriad of learning experiences, inspiration, hard work, struggle, and loss. Her story illustrates her tenacity throughout the struggles of adapting to a different culture, learning a new language, working for a major organization, attending college, raising five daughters, losing her husband to cancer, and finally finding purpose and a new home. This three-week vacation became a grand adventure. Her advice is to keep in mind you might be taken to a place you never expected; but, no doubt, life is so unpredictable. Have faith that you are precisely where you are supposed to be.
