About this listen

This book is not about perilous journeys through the winding roads of distant lands, but through the hearts and tales of those who call them home. This isn’t your typical travelogue adorned with sights seen and landmark checklists. Instead, it’s a mosaic of encounters and voices, a collection of life stories that paint a picture far richer than any postcard could.

Join Anna Halabi as she chases after a donkey carrying her food and water, as she hikes up the Semien Mountains in Ethiopia. Trust her when she puts her faith in a young woman and helps fund her college education. Laugh with her as she learns the difference between K-Pop and Kebab on her trip to South Korea and discovered how resilient she is after spending a week in a small pirogue cruising down the Niger River with seven strangers and a band of cockroaches and mosquitos.

From Souks to Skyscrapers is a patchwork of the adventures of a young Syrian woman traveling around the world. Anna Halabi tells the tales of her journeys, the kindness of strangers she had encountered and unravels the contradictions and contrasts to her own culture.
