I’ve got a problem. An addiction. Other than travel, that is.

Used books.

When I was in Washington state, I went on a used book buying binge – I bought anything and everything, from textbooks to novels, but my favorite book (that I’ve read, at least) from the trip was All Over The Map by Laura Fraser. An autographed copy, no less.

Fraser tells the story of her life traveling, the lovers she met along the way, cities that won over her heart, and life in San Miguel de Allende as a single, 40+ woman (Hey! It’s all right!).

She proved that life as a nomad is accessible and possible, even as an adult with responsibilities. She writes about the city in such a sultry and enticing way that it comes to no surprise to anyone who knows me that I adore Mexico…and that’s why I picked SMA as my first Wanderlust Wednesday pick.

How could you not love to be here?

Have you been to San Miguel de Allende? I’d love to hear your thoughts and suggestions of things to do and places to see!
