Overview

'WanderLOST is a beautiful story, a tremendous global-adventure kind of story...Sims asks all the right questions. He gently invites you to ask them with him. He travels the world and brings you along. He offers the hope he has found with a humility that invites you to ponder with him where you have found hope.' Shane Claiborne, author, activistThis exuberant coming of age story charts one millennial’s decades-long globetrotting adventure in pursuit of meaning, significance, and belonging. With each intriguing anecdote, harrowing encounter, and entertaining mishap the author challenges readers to reckon with accepted notions of freedom and identity.Sims expertly melds memoir with moral philosophy as he weighs the costs of a life in pursuit of liberty and happiness. In the void left from this path, WanderLOST offers readers glimpses of wholeness in the deeper journey of learning to love.'
