It was really entertaining, indeed. The whole experience of being in a foreign land must be scary when you're alone. Thanks for stopping by!

The idea of adding the husband’s story from visiting her home country is clever. Thanks for this lovely and insightful review!
I love exploring and learning about other people's cultures. Think of all the things we'd be missing out on, especially the food. Thanks for stopping by!

Good point! Thanks for stopping by!

Thanks for the amazing review. Books about the experience of the African diaspora has always intrigued me. I'll have to give this a read.
