Like a Lotus

Veronica seemed to have what so many strive for: a good home, a wonderful fiancé, a well-paying job. But none of that gave her the purpose and joy she longed for. So in 2013, she began a journey of self discovery, adventure, and freedom.

Running a guesthouse in dusty and blissful Cambodia; climbing to mountain peaks in Indonesia and Nepal; even getting lost in the depths of Chinese countryside, she learned that the path you choose to follow doesn’t have to be the one laid out in front of you.

Veronica Trunzo continues to teach and write, and currently resides in Santiago, Chile. She was born and raised in Ottawa, Canada, and graduated with a degree in Art History and Literature from the University of Toronto. She is currently working on her second novel, Pavla’s Doll.
