About the Book
Monica Yuzak was born in a small northern town in Saskatchewan, to hardworking parents who raised five daughters on a single wage.
Though they provided stability and love, Monica
could not wait to leave home and experience
what the world had to offer.
With her freshly minted medical degree in her
back pocket and a baby daughter in her arms,
she did just that. She lived and worked in Papua New Guinea, the Northwest Territories, and New Zealand, never staying still for too long.
When her daughter, Anika, turned thirteen, she
knew she had to keep her promise, and they
settled in Vancouver, where Monica discovered that travel could be as much about seeing her
surroundings with a fresh perspective as
physically exploring faraway places.
