My Other Country: Nineteen Years in Bolivia - Paperback
Description
by Jim Shultz (Author)
Many people dream of living outside their country, to see the world through different eyes. Among those who do, many just move for a short time or transplant themselves to a place not so different than home. Then there is Bolivia. My Other Country is a family memoir, the story of a young couple from San Francisco who moved to a valley in the Andes and stayed for almost two decades. It is a story about a family coming together, about falling into the center of a South American revolution, and about a handcrafted life in a very different place.
"Warm, funny, inspiring-and not without pets-it also made me realize that while most of us can choose our friends but must love our family, a few remarkable people chose their family and love them all the more." Matt Seaton, Editor, New York Review Daily
"Readers will be grateful for Jim's beautifully woven stories of people, family and places. A brilliant testimony of life in Bolivia." Eduardo Rodriguez Veltze, Former President of Bolivia
"Through every chapter, Jim has made me see my country in a different way: sometimes with sadness, sometimes with joy but mainly with hope." Marcela Olivera, Bolivian global water rights activist
