<p>"They're mostly Muslims - they'll hate you!" was the dire warning given to the author before she embarked upon the adventure that would change her life. Time disproved that and many other negative predictions. In this world of "East Versus West" or "Christian Versus Muslim" mentalities, the real life experiences of ESL (English as a Second Language) teacher Alice Crocker disprove much of what many people expect when they become full time residents in a country, culture, or even religious environment that is not their own. She learned one of her most valuable life lessons, "Be yourself and let who you are speak to those you are connecting with." With endearing, earthy wit, infinite delight in her experiences - even the highly embarrassing ones - and most of all deep, abiding love and respect, Alice's true stories prove that friendship knows no bounds and that being a fish out of water can be the most humbling, instructional, and meaningful life experience of all. These stories, all true, will encourage readers to fully entrust their lives to God, because a joyous adventure awaits, and will open their hearts to people who are "foreign," causing them to see individuals, not stereotypes. Because in the scope of creation and journeying through this temporary world with all its joy and promise, struggle and uncertainty, Alice and her beloved Indonesian friends and students prove that we are all in this together.</p>
