Together, the trio peered behind the Iron Curtain of the then mysterious and vilified world of communist Russia, discovering ordinary people rather that ideological enemies. Hitching rides by land and water, their remarkable journey also took them through Spain, Italy, Greece, Germany, England, Turkey, Iran, Pakistan, Afghanistan, India, Nepal, Mombasa, Nairobi,, Haryana, Poona, Goa, Ceylon, (Sri Lanka), Indonesia, Thailand, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Japan. Ruth Kaufman describes in detail their unforgettable experiences in villages and towns, homes and hamlets of the everyday people that they had met along the way, bonding with their new friends while sharing their hearts and stories, indeed their humanity, in a way that beautifully transcended their cultural differences and the chaotic world of 1960's power politics.
While Ruth and her children made deep and abiding friendships with their global neighbors, they also had some scary encounters, including being held as prisoners for three days on a ship in Bombay Harbor, mistakenly accused of smuggling gold from Africa. Yet their perilous adventures simply enriched their journey - a voyage that brought them face-to-face, heart-to-heart- with humanity, friendship, love and the world.

Buchbeschreibung Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - In 1968, Ruth Kaufman, a 45 year old elementary school teacher, and her two teenaged children, David and Nita, fled the comforts of their middle class American lifestyle to embark on what would become a precarious fourteen-month journey to some of the most impoverished and volatile parts of the world. At a time when the United States and Russia, bristling with nuclear weapons, had forced the global community into the deep-freeze of the Cold war, and as human beings were relentlessly killing each other in Vietnam, Ruth was determined to find the best in humanity. With her humble spirit and precocious nature, flanked by the innocent curiosity and enthusiasm of her children - all of which magnificently shines through in Becoming Ruth - A World Citizen - she boldly stepped into lands, cultures, lives and hearts. 'I was a woman hungry for new experiences through the hearts and minds of the world's people', says Ruth. Together, the trio peered behind the Iron Curtain of the then mysterious and vilified world of communist Russia, discovering ordinary people rather that ideological enemies.
