520 2  "Spanning four seasons, ten countries, three teaching jobs,
       and countless buses, Patagonian Road : A Year Alone 
       Through Latin America chronicles Kate McCahill's solo 
       journey from Guatemala to Argentina. In her struggles with
       language, romance, culture, service, and homesickness, she
       personifies a growing culture of women for whom travel is 
       not a path to love but a route to meaningful work, rare 
       inspiration, and profound self-discovery. Following the 
       route Paul Theroux outlined in his 1979 travelogue, The 
       Old Patagonian Express, McCahill transports the reader 
       from a classroom in a rugged Quito barrio to a dingy 
       rented room in an El Salvadorian brothel, and from the 
       storied neighborhoods of Buenos Aires to the heights the 
       Peruvian Andes. A testament to courage, solitude, and the 
       rewards of taking risks, Patagonian Road proves that 
       discovery, clarity, and simplicity remain possible in the 
       21st century, and that travel holds an enduring capacity 
       to transform"--Provided by publisher.
