I stumbled upon Geraldine's travel
blog, The Everywhereist, over 5 years ago and immediately fell in love with her
charm and humor. I know I'm not unique in thinking Geraldine is one of my
friends by now; that's what happens when you read so much about one's life
on the internet. But, alas, she has no idea who I am. We
completely share the same love for sweets and I always check her
blog before we travel somewhere new to see if she's already scoped out the
best bakeries in town.
When I found out she was writing a
book I was over the moon. Reading All Over the Place is like sitting down
with a good friend, laughing (ok, fine, snorting) away and nodding along in
agreement as Geraldine regales you with hilarious and crazily honest stories. It's less
about actually traveling and more about life, dare I say, growing up, being in
love (and the compromise that follows!) and understanding the people and places around you and what
that means. I loved every word of it and can see myself re-reading it
over and over. It's definitely not to be missed!
