“I am loyal and constant in my love for travel, as I have not always been loyal and constant to my other loves. I feel about travel the way a happy new mother feels about her impossible, colicky, restless newborn baby – I just don’t care  what it puts me through. Because I adore it.” I think every woman should read at least once in her life Elizabeth Gilbert’s “Eat, Pray, Love”. I have first read it somewhere in 2008-2009 and it has conquered me from the first page. Recently, since I am a special case, I have decided it is time I should come back to its pages, read it once again, being almost certain that I will see it with whole new eyes (since I’ve grown  a little bit since then). I am only at the beginning, reading page by page, taking everything in, enjoying her jokes and even more than that, visualizing Rome and Italy in my mind. When I first read the book I could identify only with the heartache, the continuous search of oneself, ...

Sometimes, we come across a book which we want to hold onto and feel like finishing it as early as possible and this was one of those books for me.

One of my favorite (ok, I could dare to say the number one favorite) contemporary writer is the Nigerian Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie. I have stumbled upon her, last summer when during two of my travels I have read in two different flight magazines about her highly acclaimed “ Americanah ”. The recommendations sparked my interest and I have decided that the book is one I should read.
