Only Pack What You Can Carry ─ My Path to Inner Strength, Confidence, and True Self-Knowledge

Magnetically written by former CEO of the North Carolina Council of Girl Scouts and award winning CEO for the New York's Children Council of the Arts, this uniquely engaging travel journal describes four keys to unlocking personal and spiritual fulfillment: solitude, introspection, challenge, and commitment. Through a series of compelling travel essays and deeply thoughtful memoirs, Janice Booth draws readers into each adventure—ranging from a solo hike through Northern California to galloping across the fields of Ireland to a short stint with the Circus Arts learning the flying trapeze—and shares her secrets to a fuller life through traveling alone. Step by step, she demonstrates why leaving everything—and everyone—behind for a few days (or more!) is the best path to inner strength, confidence, and true self-knowledge.

Janice Booth has a weekly travel series in regional North Carolina newspaper The Gaston Gazette entitled "On Adventure with Janice Booth." She is a dedicated fundraiser, workshop leader, web guru, seminar specialist, and student of life who is committed to sharing the joy of living with gusto through her own experiences.
