Women Bras:Sand in My Bra and Other Misadventures: Funny Women Write from the Road (Travelers' Tales Guides)
Product Description
Travel doesn’t always live up to one’s expectations — it sometimes exceeds them. For the 25 women contributors to Sand in My Bra and Other Misadventures, hitting the road inspires tales that their friends and families, as well as the readers of this book, will never forget. Readers laugh, cry, and commiserate with these women and their comical, bizarre, and unforgettable adventures including being chased by a herd of 50 African elephants, getting bitten by a goddess-possessed healer in Kathmandu, nightclubbing with a prude in Bangkok’s infamous Patpong sex district, and observing the shenanigans of a delirious new son-in-law in the Himalayas. Contributors include Anne Lamott, Ellen Degeneres, Sandra Tsing Loh, Sarah Vowell, and Cynthia Kaplan.
Sand in My Bra and Other Misadventures: Funny Women Write from the Road (Travelers' Tales Guides) Reviews
This review is from: Sand in My Bra and Other Misadventures: Funny Women Write from the Road (Travelers' Tales Guides) (Paperback)
I picked this book up on a recent trip to San Francisco to read on the plane home to Texas. All I can say is, don't read this book on a plane unless you know the person sitting next to you WELL - it had me laughing hysterically (and loudly). Fortunately, I was sitting with my husband...
The only possible drawback is that it really does deal mostly with things that women can relate to. From explaining a gynecological problem in a foreign language to being the less-than-perfect body on the beach with bikini clad babes, it definitely speaks to the woman traveler. As for me - I could definitely relate. Buy it for your next plane ride!

A cute collection of travel stories by women. I thought it would be funnier than it was. Many of these essays are older and published previously.
A few of the essays stood out (those by Sandra Tsing Loh, Jennifer Leo, Christine Nielse, Sarah Vowell, Christine Michaud, Alison Wright) and others were soon forgotten or difficult to get through (Anne Lamott, Deborah Chaney, E. Jean Carroll, Michele Peterson, Margo Kaufman).
One thing for sure, is that reading these stories makes you want to travel.

These stories are all about women in various traveling situations. I expected more of them to be funny, but hardly any were. Some of them were downright stupid, actually. Quite a few locations were covered, but many of them didn't really give me a good sense of place. I didn't think this was a good book, travel or not.
