A Message to Readers:
Thank you for choosing to read this memoir. I wasn't planning on writing a book about my travels - I had actually started a YouTube Channel instead. I thought it would be a lot more fun to watch the adventures I go on rather than write about them. As an example, recording/watching a museum visit is much more fun than reading about it.
My three main objectives were:
- Never see a snowbank ever again in my life, or have to live in sub-zero temps, or deal with black ice, or blizzards, or... You get the point.
- Live an adventurous life - something different from the first 54 years of my life.
- Sit in a lawn chair and watch lizards jump on and off rocks in the desert.
The above three points are what my first 54 years of life had boiled down to: No icy winters or cold temps, adventure, lizards on rocks, and a lawn chair for comfort.
Simple and stupid, and it worked for me.
Well, what is that phrase about making plans and the universe laughs? Mmm hmm...
I met a man.
I knew I'd most likely meet new people during my travels, but meeting a romantic interest wasn't on that carefully crafted BINGO Card.
Throughout this book, you'll read all about him, how we met, our time spent together and apart, and our serendipitous reunion, as well as my thoughts on the biggest adventure to date that I have experienced.
Anyway, I had started journaling my experiences with him after his death. Yes, you read that correctly - after his death, and experiences with him. My goal was to keep these notes for myself so I wouldn't forget any of them. My end-all was to never publish a book. However, he had different plans. Again, you read that correctly. This book is Fred's idea - and you read that correctly, too.
It is my hope that these insights help you in understanding how extraordinary these events have been. You now have in your hands the story of a love so profound it defies logical explanation and a connection so deep it spans lifetimes. Regardless of what you believe to be true about the human soul, you owe it to yourself to open your mind and experience what true love really is.
