It happens so quickly: one minute I think I'm having a moment with this blue-eyed stranger who offered me an empanada, the next, a girl crashes in on our conversation as she whines her way into the seat between us and right into the stranger's arms.

What's more, she looks like those travelling hotties you see on Instagram who make sleeping in a tent in the middle of the forest in their underwear look glamorous. I guess life just isn't fair like that.   

Meraki Mori loves words, and has a fascination with words from around the world that the English language doesn't have a direct translation for. She sets out on a backpacking trip after graduation in search of these untranslatable words. 

But it seems she'll find more than what she was looking for after a chance encounter at an airport and the series of serendipitous events that follow. And maybe, just maybe, for the very first time in her life, Meraki Mori will find herself at a loss for words.All Rights Reserved
