Unforgettable stories of travel, connection, and self-discovery
Tania Romanov hangs from the final limb of a family tree of generations of unintentional travelers--exiles, refugees, displaced people. She grew up with stories of exile--stories of adventure. Perhaps that's why, as an adult, she started living her own adventures--and hasn't stopped since.
In India, she learned that to Indians the way she mourned her husband was far less personal than their custom of dropping cremated bodies into a river; in Japan, that her ancestors could find her in the oddest of circumstances. In Bhutan, she found family, and in Namibia she learned to ease her fears of being trapped in her own past.
In Never a Stranger, Tania shares those experiences and more, unforgettable stories of travel, connection, and self-discovery.
