Some people travel to see the world. Halaina traveled to find herself.

Born in Ramallah and carried across an ocean at eight years old, Halaina spent years moving - through states, through countries, through versions of herself she didn't yet have names for. Miles From Home is the story of what happened when she finally stopped running and started paying attention.

From the cathedrals of Spain to the beer halls of Munich. From the underground streets of Seattle to the sacred silence of Jerusalem. From Paris at night to the lowest point on earth. Across eleven countries and a lifetime of departure, she discovered that every place leaves something inside you - and that the road does not make you who you are. It reveals who you have always been.

This is not a travel book. It is a memoir written in motion - honest, cinematic, and deeply personal. It is about grief found on a hillside in Jerusalem beside her father's grave. About freedom discovered in a Berlin street at two in the morning. About the pull toward home that never leaves, no matter how many miles you place between yourself and the place you began.

Miles From Home is for anyone who has ever felt too uprooted to stay, too restless not to leave, and too changed to ever fully return.

The journey begins. The roots remain.
