Publisher description
19 year old Jake Heilbrunn presents Off the Beaten Trail, called by many as "the young dude version of Wild and Eat Pray Love." 2 x NYT best selling author Chris Guillebeau praised the inspiring memoir as a "brave, beautiful book...that can help you when you arrive at your next set of crossroads." At 18, Jake Heilbrunn entered college like millions of other high school graduates. But deep down, he knew something was wrong. After developing a chronic skin condition and becoming anxious and depressed, Jake realized the path he was on didn't align with his dreams. Listening to his inner voice and following his heart, he took a leap of faith, left school and hopped on a one-way flight to Guatemala. Without a phone and having no knowledge of Spanish, he spent four months backpacking through Guatemala, Nicaragua and Costa Rica so he could explore other ways of life and disconnect from a society dominated by social media. From camping in the jungle and teaching poverty-stricken children to meeting inspirational people from around the world, Jake's quest took him to remote locations beyond the fringes of civilization. His pilgrimage led him to realize there are limitless ways to live and that people can create their own destinies through self-reflection and then taking action. Jake's story shows that it is in the pursuit of our dreams and passions-not the destination-where we find personal fulfillment and inner peace
