\"\"<\/a>That’s right–my travel journals from the 2008 study abroad to Jordan are now up on Amazon<\/a>, Barnes & Noble<\/a>, and almost everywhere else! \u00a0Here’s a complete list:<\/p>\n

Kindle<\/a> | Kindle UK<\/a> | Kindle DE<\/a> | Kindle FR<\/a> | Kindle ES<\/a> | Kindle IT<\/a> | Nook<\/a> | Smashwords<\/a> | Kobo | Diesel<\/a> | Xinxii | Sony | iTunes<\/a><\/p>\n

Kobo, Xinxii, and Sony should be coming in the next couple of weeks.<\/p>\n

I initially set the price for the illustrated version at $4.95, but the transaction fees are a lot less than I thought they would be, so I’ve decided to drop it down to $2.99 with the unillustrated version. \u00a0The changes should be reflected on Amazon and Barnes & Noble in a few hours.<\/p>\n

I had an amazing, life-changing experience in Jordan, and after coming home, I had big dreams of turning my travel journals into a book. \u00a0Because of ebooks and indie publishing, that dream is now a reality. \u00a0From the description:<\/p>\n

In 2008, Brigham Young University partnered with the University of Jordan to organize a summer study abroad program for its Arabic students. Scattered across West Amman in home-stays coordinated with Amideast, these students spent the summer living, studying, playing, and adventuring in the Middle East.<\/p>\n

This is the travel journal of one of those students, and gives a detailed and intensely personal account of his time there. Besides the cultural experience of living with a Palestinian family in an Arab country, it tells the story of a critical juncture in his life, and how traveling across the Middle East helped to shape his personal growth, his spirituality, and his love for a people far from his American home.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Kind of cheesy, but yeah. \ud83d\ude42 I hope you like it–please share it if you do!<\/p>\n

I’m about to embark on another adventure, so this probably won’t be the last travel journal I do. \u00a0Who knows–maybe a year or two from now, I’ll be doing a book like this on my experiences in Georgia. \u00a0Or better yet, I’ll make it back to the Middle East and do a before-and-after. \u00a0Whatever I do, I’ll be sure to keep you guys updated frequently–so definitely stay in touch!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
