From my list on atmospheric adventure of wonder and curiosity.

Why am I passionate about this?

My favorite part of being a journalist is interviewing people and getting to see the world through their eyes.

Here are five books that swept me off to tropical jungles, Siberian volcanoes, ancient civilizations, and helped me think about the world in new ways.
