“Have you ever wished you could put your responsibilities on hold and go have an adventure (or five)? The author of TSTW did just that, and shares her experiences traveling through southeast Asia in intimate, sometimes shocking, detail.” ~ The Letter M, Amazon Reviews
 
“Morey’s writing voice is informal, helping the reader feel like they’re a friend tagging along on her adventures… a fun read that should appeal to fans of travel narratives, especially women who have a thing for guys with accents. ~ BigAl, Amazon Review
 
Book Description: What does one do when they’ve suffered a bad break up, and are trying to “find” themselves, but aren’t quite ready to deal with reality? Travel, of course.
 
And so begins my adventure, or should I say misadventure? Seven months taking on Southeast Asia trying to find the answers to life, God, relationships, and sex. I’d spent the last five years overseas teaching English and was currently living in Taiwan. I was thirty three. My ten year marriage had fallen apart and I suddenly found myself single with no idea what I wanted to do with my life. I had questions with no answers and a divorce I didn’t want to deal with.
 
So, I ran. To Thailand. To Cambodia. To Vietnam. To India. To Sri Lanka. I mean really if you’re going to go on the lam can you think of a better place than the exotic beauty of Southeast Asia? In Travel, Sex, & Train Wrecks I present the whole sordid story of my journey. Just to give you fair warning it does involve sex, hot men with accents, Pad Thai, and bizarre travel situations. And it will probably leave you with an uncontrollable urge to travel to Thailand..… Read more on Amazon.

About the Author: Julie Morey is originally from a nice suburb in Northern California complete with a white picket fence. Her parents are still shaking their heads and wondering what they did wrong. They make sure to send her one guilt inducing e-mail a month about how it is time to “stop traveling and return to reality.” She politely ignores them.
The travel bug bit her in college when she visited Europe with a couple girlfriends. 50 + countries later she is still traveling. She has spent the last five years in Southeast Asia, teaching in both South Korea and Taiwan, and traveling through Malaysia, the Philippines, Bali, Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, Vietnam, India, Sri Lanka, Burma, China, Mongolia, Russia, most of Eastern Europe, Turkey, Greece, and Ireland. Recently, she was last spotted somewhere in South America near Ecuador. :)

“This is a story about embracing all of life, from a fairy tale wedding to a bitter divorce, from teaching English language in bustling Asian cities to a silent retreat. Julie does everything with full passion and thrives to write about it. This book is coragous, intimate and candid. It reads just like the author were telling her tales in person around your kitchen table.” ~ Lizabeth, Amazon Reviews
