A Traveler's Tale

Daisy Hadmoko, journalist and veteran travel writer, is in a quandary. Now that most of her books have been given away, she wants to ensure that the important large books she still has get a readership. In other words, she wants to donate them to a repository. "But I no longer know anyone," she said with a sigh.
