Tales From the Jan Van

This is the true story of how one woman reclaimed happiness on her own terms. 

In her mid-forties, Jan found herself at a crossroads when her orderly life veered off course. A devastating divorce and a sudden death in the family made her realize it was time to make her dreams of road-tripping around the USA come true, even if she had to go alone. 

Part memoir, part travel guide, and part inspirational push, Tales From the Jan Van is a celebration of traveling, writing, and courage.
