Memory Road Trip: A Retrospective Travel Journey

By Krista Marson

Book Overview

MEMORY ROAD TRIP is a collection of travel stories ranging from the sublime to the surreal as recounted by a former travel agent who saw the world on the cheap.

Fate throws two people together, and tragedy compels them to stay as one even though they both know they'd be better apart. MEMORY ROAD TRIP is a diary of growth composed of brutally honest musings and retrospective tales. Youth and naivety are unabashedly displayed as the author explores certain parts of the globe while simultaneously discovering her contemplative self. Alcoholism is an unspoken companion that goes along for the ride in a pre-Covid world spanning from the early '90s to the fall of the Twin Towers.

The journey down memory road is not only an adventurous journey to certain parts of the globe but also an introspective and witty journey to the mysterious self. The author's passion for nature, art, history, and architecture gush across the page, along with her contagious curiosity in life and her pragmatic acceptance of death. The writer does not shy away from her developing political and environmental musings, for traveling opens her eyes to see a fragile and connected world.

The journey down memory road is a coming-of-age excursion into the past taking armchair explorers on an odyssey of life, love, and loneliness.
