What if the path you were meant to follow wasn't a path at all?

At 23, Danika was determined to follow the plan: veterinary school, career, home, family-just like her mother expected. But when a rejection letter derails everything, she buys a one-way ticket to Sri Lanka, hoping a faraway escape will help her regroup. Instead, it unravels her carefully constructed identity and opens the door to something far more life-changing.

With no return flight and no clear plan, Danika embarks on a year of solo travel through Asia and beyond-navigating cultural mishaps, unsettling volunteer placements, and altitude-sickness-inducing treks. But the hardest challenge isn't on the road-it's untangling the beliefs she grew up with about success, safety, and self-worth.

Told with honesty, humor, and a deep sense of place, One Year and a One-Way Ticket is a story for anyone who's ever felt stuck in a life that doesn't quite fit.

Let this memoir take you farther than a plane ticket ever could.

For readers of Eat Pray Love, Tales of a Female Nomad, and other travel memoirs by women, this book offers a deeply relatable journey through uncertainty, transformation, and the kind of courage that quietly reshapes us.

Start reading and see how far one brave choice can take you.
