Eat, Pray, Love: One Woman’s Search for Everything Across Italy, India and Indonesia (Paperback)
by Elizabeth Gilbert (Author)
In buying this travelogue, I bought with the intention of joining along the author’s travels and ‘virtually traveling.’ I thought what a treat in in itself. She travels to Italy, India, and Indonesia.
Italy’s stories are just laugh out loud funny and so refreshing. The tales from India show a little more thoughtfulness as she is studying at a guru’s hideaway. And Indonesia is now winding down a year of fierce self study.
However throughout the entire book, the author has quite a delightful way of self reflecting thoughts and discussing some philosophical life questions in a light and playful manner that invites you to do the same. I found myself learning so much about myself and letting it plant little life questions in my head to ponder as I slept. Almost a subtle guide to philosophical and life questions we all should think about but never are triggered.
Loved it for the lightness, laughter, and thought-provoking discussions she brings to light. I read it with tremendous wonder.
