At its core, Where to Nest by Kristen Van Nest is a book about self-discovery and finding a sense of place and purpose. And this searching is built around international experiences through most of Kristen’s twenties while living abroad.
She moved to Luxembourg on a Fulbright Scholarship, followed by three years in China working for a wine importer and spending time in Thailand during a government coup and in Greece during a banking crisis. This book details her experiences of working with colleagues and roommates (note: it was not all positive), dating and the stresses of working overseas. On the way she survived a cancer scare, and a scary ski accident.
Part painful, part funny, part inspirational and all personal, this book is an enjoyable read – especially while traveling overseas.
Ultimately her path led her to Los Angeles where she pursued comedy. She has built a career around comedy, acting and writing.
