The Best Women's Travel Writing Ed by Lavinia Spalding

This was a great collection of stories. My favorites:

Masha by Marcia De Sanctis- a story looking at a brief connection between women from different worlds in communist Russia.

Naked by Sarah Katin- A look at the differences in how women view their bodies in South Korea. Also a feeling of friendship and wanting to share their culture with the outsider.

Jersey Girl by Abbie Kozolchyk- One woman's quest for soccer jerseys all over the world- and the unexpected experiences this brings. (also that is the thing Coen looks for on all our trips).

In Lardo We Trust by Marcy Gordon- The universal story of a ill conceived hike and the blessings of lardo.
