The Red Fish Project - about living abroad as a rite of passage

The Red Fish Project, Andrew Gillmore

I love this book! It's an honest account of living abroad, but it is also advocating that life is much richer and more rewarding when taking the plunge to explore out of your own comfort zones!

This quote from the book sums it up: "Living abroad should be a rite of passage. It’s so invaluable that there’s no reason to not do it for at least a while. And it’s not enough to just visit another place. You need to live there. And to take it one step further, you need to become a part of that country."

Andrew Gillmore makes me feel that after reading this book I need a do-over in life! Maybe we can still take that plunge?

Thoroughly enjoyed The Red Fish Project! @gillmorea10 makes me wish for a do-over in life! TX @cupcakemummy pic.twitter.com/LXjRgxNON9

Read the Amazon Review: Living abroad should be a rite of passage! Im  convinced!


I got this book (for a honest review) also through Carol-Leigh (CupcakeMummy) at Charlie Foxtrot, but it seems the review option has ended! (?)
