Traveling in Wonder is not your typical travel journal turned book—it’s not even a travel guide. Instead, Traveling in Wonder: A Travel Photographer’s Tales of Wanderlust reads like a letter from Autumn to the many countries she’s visited, first as a student traveling abroad, then as a flight attendant, a travel agent, and more recently, a travel photographer.

With a gift for storytelling, Autumn invites the reader into what she was experiencing in each country. She also weaves in reflections on a broader level—her thoughts on being bullied, anxiety, falling in love, and how we’re all more alike than we may believe.

Explore Autumn’s words for tips and best practices on traveling. Discover Autumn finding her identity not in her goal of 30 countries within 30 years but in who she became because of the people she met, both abroad and at home, and what they taught her about life.

Traveling in Wonder is also a love letter to self, and the courage it takes to get on a plane and go, but also in choosing not to run away from your problems in the present, and equally, letting ordinary days teach you more about yourself.
