She had built a carefully balanced life of work and play but it all seemed to add up to a life of mediocrity. She and a dear friend headed out to bike from Key West to Canada a trip she'd dreamed of taking for decades. Those two months on the road offered a time of transition teaching her mostly that she doesn't have to live as an armchair traveler through life's third act.</p><p><br></p><p>In this engaging travel memoir Watts shares essays about friendship marriage self-doubt and more. Her aim: to nudge others out the door to go do that thing they've always wanted to do.</p><p><br></p><p><br></p>
