You Had Me at Hola is the memoir of Leigh Robshaw who travels from her home in Australia to South America to seek adventure and find love. The plan is only meant to travel for three months, however Robshaw ends up telling the reader about how she found her purpose in life. In her trip she discovers new experiences.

Robshaw starts her journey not knowing what will happen and where it will take her, and there are definitely moments you can feel her wondering if she made the right decisions, but the sense of the unknown in the book is also one of its allures.

This made the memoir an easy read, Robshaw successfully grasps the reader’s attention, the memoir is descriptive that you end up feeling like you are also in South America. She takes the reader to different places.

I’m sure that a lot of people will be able to relate to this book – if they’ve been travelling, but also if they’ve ever found themselves in a time in their lives where they feel a little lost or unsure about what’s going to happen next. The plethora of interesting people definitely make this book what is it.

I hope you’ll enjoy the Memoir….
