You Deserve Good Gelato: Reasons to Travel the World, Embrace Failure, and Do the Sh*t that Scares You
by Kacie Rose
"After a life-changing solo trip, Kacie Rose did the scariest thing she could think of: She moved from New York City to Italy. And it went perfectly! Just kidding--she made a lot of mistakes. In her tell-all memoir meets manifesto, Kacie champions travel and embracing the scary stuff, like immersing yourself in new cultures (and failling espically along the way) or jumping head-first into a new language (even if it involves telling your boyfriend's mom you're "horny" instead of "excited"). Why? Because the most amazing things come from doing the sh*t that scares you. And you totally deserve those things."
