You Slept Where?

As a little girl, author Brenda Prater Sellers traipsed around Prater Flats in Louisville, Tennessee, thinking she was Ansel Adams with her first, clunky, black-and-white Polaroid that didn't work half the time. The love of that camera and the unknown turned her into not only an overzealous wannabe photographer but into a Southern, Mountain Dew-driven, M&M eating, adrenaline-seeking adventurer, skydiver, and climber of Mount Everest.

In You Slept Where? she shares her story about a businesswoman who is also a wife, mother, and a farmer's daughter pursuing a childhood dream of being published in National Geographic, while coping with life's struggles of her parents' eldercare. Sellers also tells about her experiences and mishaps in bizarre locations and staying at the world's most unique places: an underwater hotel, an ice hotel, sleeping with polar bears, or sleeping in wigwams along Route 66. Imagine the movies Miss Congeniality meets National Lampoon's Vacation in her version of Planes, Trains and Automobiles.

With cost-saving travel tips and other advice included, You Slept Where? provides insight into one woman's crazy adventures while encouraging others to create their own bucket list.
