The movie is well made. The main character is adorable and a solid actress. There are a couple of scenes I enjoyed. Everything else was nauseating. While the actress did a great job, her character gave me the willies and I kept hoping she would be Taken. Just another spoiled princess using people as she prances through life doing whatever she wants, thinking only of herself. This alone would be fine if her character developed or the consequences of this mentality were shown. Instead, the movie sees nothing wrong with her behavior. Even her boss is helping her out while he sits alone in his bankrupt office as she makes it all about her all the time. While I'm not "poly" myself, I am not knocking that lifestyle for those inclined, however, I find it unlikely a man would be content with his wife spreading her personal juices across the world while he is stuck surrounded by men (all hints suggested he was a straight male, so while she is out trapezing across the Earth (the safe rich parts where people do you favors for nothing), he doesn't even have a women to look at - especially when the oil rig's internet is down). If you like Eat, Prey, Love, Sex in the City, Madame Bovary, or any of those type of stories of narcissistic women, then you should enjoy this. Also, if you are superficial, then you might enjoy staring at the leading lady for however long this movie lasts. Otherwise, you can safely skip this film and miss nothing important.

Good eye candy with the variety of locations, the music is off-putting, there are flashes of entertaining writing and the frequency of poor acting is frustrating. Ultimately this film is unsatisfying.

I would encourage anyone who is striving, struggling, and pushing on a journey to make your life vision a reality. This movie is about what's happens when your meet with a road block on your journey to greatness. Yes, it's a movie, but sometimes movies are meant to do more than entertain there is a lesson to learn.

For starters, I must say that this film is fantastic. It's original, well-written, beautifully-shot and the acting is superb. The locations make you wanna get on the next flight to Europe and spend a season there traveling even if it's on foot. My only problem with the movie is its resolution. I'm not saying it's got a bad ending, rather what I'm trying to say is that it starts so good and it keeps on building that you just sort of feel disappointed at the end because you were expecting something else. Other than that, this is a must-see for any fan of good independent movies. A solid 9/10 for me!

If you think that this'll be some uplifting travel story well.. you're wrong. I get it though, it's a reality check. Nobody can afford to dream :)

Let me start by it is a common debate on the title. I do understand what the writer is trying to show but there was a flaw. Everyone's not perfect and this movie shows. The trailer shows exactly what I was expecting but instead of adventure as a backpacker, it was more about a story of a lack common sense woman. I was about to leave on the day three scene as it was repetitive. The ending should've just stopped at the part where she's done with the flashbacks. It is more memorable that way. The part where she answered the trick question... it was a man's perspective. Next issue I have, are the locations, music choice and the main actress. I do agree the travel around Europe is fun but the publisher is all the way from Newcastle was all over the place. There was no character development on how she got a publisher from Newcastle other than the stories she have in her book. Music choices. Oh, where should I start? It was messy. I liked the second half of the music in the movie but the first half was so messy that I don't understand the relation between the scene and the music. It was well-done, yes. But not in that tone. Main actress. I understand that she's hired for her accent and her emotion delivery. However, it was hard for me to hear her act. Her emotions delivery was great but her enunciation need more work. The writer... tend to insert more Australian slurs in the script. Made the movie purely suitable for Australians. That's one of the confusion I have when trying to make sense of the storytelling. However, the movie is definitely not my cup of tea. Because I did try to see the goodness over the flaws but there were so many flaws. Overall, thank you to everyone who put an effort for this movie and good luck for many projects to come.

I loved this movie. I thought it had a nice traveling charm and left me wanting to travel more. She is such a cute personality and the story overall is good. The ending isn't a home run but overall a great movie and definitely worth the time.
