Twelve stories of wayward travelers.
Twelve stamps on the passport of the soul.
Walter struggles to see past his disfigurement, but a trip to Thailand and a mysterious woman may challenge his quest for perfection. Married to a workaholic, Leslie is accustomed to solitude until her overbearing Indian mother-in-law turns her kitchen into a verbal battlefield. A woman looks for the perfect souvenir in the Turkish Bazaar and instead finds a passionate love affair.

At home and abroad, solitary travelers embark on journeys that take them where they never expected to go.
