About this listen

Dena was a busy midwife trapped on the hamster wheel of working motherhood. Adam was an eccentric Buddhist yogi passing as a hardworking dad. Bella was 14 and wanted to be normal. Sophia was up for anything that involved skipping school. Together, they shouldered backpacks, walked away from their California life of all-night births, carpool schedules, and Cal Skate, and crisscrossed India and Nepal for eight months - a journey that led them to His Holiness the Dalai Lama, the tree where the Buddha sat, and the arms of Amma the Divine Mother.

From the banks of the Ganges to the Himalayan roof of the world, this enthralling memoir is an unforgettable odyssey, a moving meditation on modern family life, and a spiritual quest, written with humor and honesty - and filled with love and awe.

Tales of adventure and Buddhist words of wisdom all delicately wrapped in beautiful poetry. An inspiring tale of what's possible when we step out of our routine American life and connect more deeply with ourselves and loved ones.

I enjoyed very much especially since some of the locations were on route with my own pilgrimage through Nepal, Tebet and India. The narration was pretty wonderful with the exception of some miss pronunciations of Tibetan terms.
