The Lost Girls: Three Friends. Four Continents. One Unconventional Detour Around the World.

Floating there I held onto faith. Because you can't know who might cross your path or who will take your breath away. You can't know what friends might actually become sisters because they stayed by your side. You can't know when there'll be an unexpected detour that'll take you to the place where you were always meant to be.

Were the paths that we were heading down the right ones for us- or were we simply staying the course because we thought we should? Was the road most frequently traveled the one that we wanted to follow?

I wondered if that was a coincidence or if there was a direct connection between a woman’s ability to forge almost any path she chooses and her desire to take the one that leads beyond U.S. borders in order to gain perspective on which direction is right for her.

darkness cast by some gives others the chance to let their light shine.

Someone who wanders around because they are lost, huh?” I remarked, throwing sidelong glances at Amanda and Holly. Oh, yeah. We were mzungus for sure.
