To the Moon and Timbuktu

a trek through the heart of Africa

by

Catching her reflection in a window, Sovich no longer saw the fearless woman who spent her youth traveling staring back at her. She packed her bags and hopped on the next plane to Africa in search of adventure. In this book, Sovich takes readers on a fast-paced trek through Western Sahara, Mali, Mauritania, and Niger, bringing their textures and flavors into vivid relief. Her journey reveals that sometimes we must pursue that distant glimmer on the horizon in order to find the things we value most.
