Unsettled: a memoir

Laurie Woodford
4.17/5 (24 ratings)
Read Now Download Now
At the age of forty-nine, driven by an urgent restlessness, Laurie Woodford rents out her house, packs her belongings into two suitcases, and leaves her familiar life in upstate New York to relocate to Seoul, South Korea to teach college English. What begins as an opportunity to explore Asia while receiving a nice paycheck, evolves into a nomadic adventure.

Working and volunteering across the globe, Laurie spoon-feeds orphans in Ethiopia, performs 108 bows at a Buddhist temple in the mountains, walks shelter dogs in Peru, milks 350 goats in Fuerteventura, and gets lost in Mexico, all the while navigating dating at midlife.

After four years of traveling, Laurie’s return to the U.S. becomes an unexpected adventure of its own when she ends up in Arkansas and meets Bruce, a bird-loving, bearded Quaker with a strong sense of home and penchant for stability. When Laurie finds herself falling for Bruce after years of living a life of fierce independence, she struggles to reconcile her need for freedom with her longing to feel settled and loved.

UNSETTLED is for anyone who has ever felt something missing in their life and sought to find it. It’s a story about yearning and seeking, backbone and adventure, stillness and discovery
