12 Trips in 12 Months by Jen Ruiz was not only a tour around the world with so many amazing reccommendations for activities, food, and transportation, it was also a heartfelt memoir about leaving the path you think is "right" for you to follow what you love and realizing that romance is not the end all be all - you can be happy and single, even at 30. At 22, I am seeing old and new friends get married and start families and it can feel a little suffocating when all i'm focused on is finally finishing college so I was extremely touched by the sentiments of this book. I specifically reccommend the audiobook edition because at several points, Ruiz speaks directly to the reader and I loved hearing her encouragements out loud. 

Thank you so much to NetGalley, Blackstone Publishing, and Jen Ruiz for allowing me to read this book in exchange for an honest review (unpaid).
