Memoir, travelogue, history. Kathleen lives in a world of constant change. Everything is temporary. Moving from city to city she says goodbye to one and starts to explore the next. Never two the same. She survives. She keeps on going. Through trauma and scary times, there is also humor. She takes you from Burma to the USA, Mexico, Colombia, Nigeria, Switzerland, and Russia. Her family lives through a coup in Burma, student rioting in Colombia, two coups in Nigeria, and political unrest in Russia. Sometimes things are fabulous. Sometimes they are not. She is a Third Culture Kid, rootless and restless. As an adult she lives in Moscow for nine years during the 1990's where she witnesses history in the making and a terrifying exit. Life is never boring.
