After two failed engagements and the spectacular implosion of her family’s expectations, Nadia Harris decides it’s time to stop living for everyone else — and start living for herself.

With nothing but a suitcase, a bruised ego, and a few questionable choices behind her, she stumbles her way from heartbreak to hard-won freedom. Along the way, Nadia discovers what it means to stand on her own two feet: facing culture shock, rebuilding her confidence, and learning that independence isn’t about having all the answers, but about daring to ask new questions.

Witty, warm, and unflinchingly honest, The Making of the Asian Abroad is a story of self-discovery, second chances, and choosing your own path when life refuses to follow the script.
