Audrey Álvaro wasn't supposed to be in Spain. She was supposed to be in D.C., pretending her ex didn't happen and writing ad copy for weed seltzers no one drinks.
But after a few glasses of wine and one poorly timed impulse, she booked a flight to Collada Vieja-a mountain town her father barely mentioned, and a place her abuelo left behind decades ago.
She doesn't speak Spanish. She doesn't know the customs. The hostel owner might think she's unstable. But sometimes the best journeys start with no plan.
Translating Audrey is a story about legacy, getting lost in translation, and what happens when you follow your breakdown across an ocean.

Backpacking Adventures: Europe Part II
This book is 100% free. If you're reading this on a platform where it's NOT free, download it from my website instead https://noahlieberman.com where it will always be free! Why is this book free? Because I believe that no one should EVER have to pay for a book. If social media is free, books should be too. I've always hated "selling" my books for people to read them. I just want you to read it for free. How is it free? Because it has a sponsor! Just like how a YouTuber will collect sponsorships for their videos, I'm doing the same for my books. Backpacking Adventures: Europe Part II is sponsored. You get to read it for free, an awesome company reaches their customers, and I don't starve! Everyone wins. Also, you should definitely download this book. It's HILARIOUS. Seriously, trust me... It's awesome. This is part II of my first free book, meaning it will get the most readers out of any of them, and therefore be judged the most. It needed to be great, and it is. It's a compilation of my best, wildest, smartest, dumbest, and most incomprehensible stories from traveling Europe. I'm a backpacker, through and through, and I've accumulated some insane stories. You're going to want to read them. Go download the book. And remember to check out part I, which is also FREE, if you haven't already. I'll see you there!Complete
Changes To Changed (ANTHOLOGY)
LOVE, LIFE AND Everything in the world can ruin you piece by piece. And speaking through it gives you more peace, silence, calmness of soul and heart and there's a lot more and more. They might not understand it but sooner or later, some may appreciate it, love it, and learn from it without you knowing it in the first place, but some may fear to acknowledge it and that's okay. It's not for them why you share it but it is for you to heal from something because you learn to know how enlightenment proves another being. One thing for sure. Never let reality and fears ruin your strength to speak for it because the world needs you to help them by becoming their truth-seeker and truth-teller in the chapter you created their own books to open.

The Language of New Beginnings
A short story. *A group of teenagers gather on the sidewalk in front of a single-family home with a FOR SALE sign plunged into the freshly cut grass. They converse and hug their friend while crying. "We are going to miss you," they say. "Please keep in touch. We should do video calls as much as we can." Ellie, the teenager in the middle of the group, refrains from crying. She doesn't want to reveal any signs of weakness to them, wanting to remain strong to make their goodbyes less difficult. Ellie takes one last glance at the house, and its sight makes it difficult to hold back her tears. There are so many fond memories, and now they will no longer be a part of her life. Ellie's mother, Jessica, calls her to say their last goodbyes to everyone from their old neighborhood and get into the taxi.****Complete
