Title: It Took Time To Appreciate, But The Payoff Is There For Those Who Persist
Product review: I started out hating this book and its author. Jamie Zeppa was an English student, preparing to get her doctorate. On a whim, she decided to teach for two years in Bhutan, a remote, tiny country precariously situated between India and China. Her fiance was not amused.I found Zeppa's initial observations of Bhutan pedestrian and whiny. It took her about six months to fall in love with the country and its people, and as she did, she became more interesting and grounded, letting go of and struggling with her sense of cultural supremacy.This book is a love story between the author, the country and a rather remarkable young man.
