In the fall of 2018, Landyn Bowers had the journey of a lifetime. She flew from her home in Maine to Berlin, Germany where she started her adventure to circumnavigate the globe. Alongside nearly 600 other students, Landyn boarded a ship with Semester at Sea and aloud her passion for knowledge and wanderlust take the wheel. In the course of 120 days, she studied 12 countries, visiting each and discovering the history and culture of everywhere that she went. She walked the streets in Barcelona, Spain and learned about the consequences of Apartheid in Cape Town, South Africa. She saw diversity in Port Louis, Mauritius, found forgiveness in Ho Chi Man, Vietnam and so much more. She documented her experience in her poetry, determined to capture the moments and lessons she was learning. Around the World and Back Again, is the story of a voyage in self-discovery, an exploration into diverse world, an examination of perspective and a quest for the definition of home.
