As a child of nine, Joyce made a vow in a Texas cotton patch to travel the world and write a book about it. It took her 60 years to fulfill this goal, but she never lost sight of her dream and without the means of personal wealth, traveled to 116 countries spanning all seven continents. This book relates her favorite places around the world, with some funny stories and destination information along the way. A inspiring and interesting book for everyone - arm-chair and adventure traveler alike.
