Through a series of interviews with Muslim women from diverse backgrounds, this book considers personal growth and self-knowledge in the context of travel. Whether it be travelling to a new country or a new locale, or how these experiences affect the way Muslim women perceive and understand the world, the author weaves together her own experiences of travel with the thoughts and feelings of women who share their own adventures and challenges. There are fascinating stories of love and friendship, as well as stories of how travel connects to roots, spirituality, confidence, identity, privilege and inspiration.
