Summary

So you're here。 The world dealt you a random card, and you're dealing with it。

Maybe right now is the first time you're even realizing you got dealt a card。 You did! You Are A Global Citizen ignites your inner curiosity and provokes self-discovery through thought-provoking questions about the cultures you have experienced--including your own--all while helping you become a more inquisitive, aware, observant, and engaged world citizen。

Whether you've never left home, are studying at university, are looking to live and move abroad, or are simply curious about your own identity within a global society, this book will help you understand how the outside world impacts what's going on inside your mind, and vice versa。

In three sections covering your origins, your external environment and your internal environment, with space for reflection at the beginning and end, Damon Dominique, pioneer of the modern day social media travel scene and star of countless popular You Tube travel vlogs and documentaries, shares his insights and stories from a decade of globetrotting。

He guides you through questions such as, 'Would you be happy if you knew you had to live in your hometown for the rest of your life?', 'What culture or country do you remember romanticizing about as a kid?', and 'How do you feel about a global language?', with the ultimate goal of encouraging you to consider the fundamental questions about who you are, what culture is and what it means to live in a global society, beyond the borders of our minds and countries。

I waited so long for this book。。。perhaps, despite being a fan of Damon, I should have expected this book to sound like a abysmal attempt at philosophy wherein the author does not acknowledge or is even aware of the philosophers who made famous the discussed ideas。The formatting, the cover, the change of a font throughout the book (what even 😭), arbitrary punctuation or the lack of thereof, errors upon errors be they grammatical or orthographical (I really would have hoped someone would have help I waited so long for this book。。。perhaps, despite being a fan of Damon, I should have expected this book to sound like a abysmal attempt at philosophy wherein the author does not acknowledge or is even aware of the philosophers who made famous the discussed ideas。The formatting, the cover, the change of a font throughout the book (what even 😭), arbitrary punctuation or the lack of thereof, errors upon errors be they grammatical or orthographical (I really would have hoped someone would have helped Damon with these)。。。is just as abysmal。 Have the editors been sleeping when they were proofreading this? 。。。more

Part story-led field guide, part interactive journal, and part thought-starter, Damon Dominique invites readers into the conversation with his debut book, YOU ARE A GLOBAL CITIZEN。If you've ever watched one of Damon's Red Wine Talks on YouTube, picture his novel as your invitation into the conversation。 Damon's book isn't a one-way story。 It's an interactive journal that wants you to challenge internal, external, and origin-based questions, allowing you to fill out answers or just ponder with hi Part story-led field guide, part interactive journal, and part thought-starter, Damon Dominique invites readers into the conversation with his debut book, YOU ARE A GLOBAL CITIZEN。If you've ever watched one of Damon's Red Wine Talks on YouTube, picture his novel as your invitation into the conversation。 Damon's book isn't a one-way story。 It's an interactive journal that wants you to challenge internal, external, and origin-based questions, allowing you to fill out answers or just ponder with him as you read。 Much like Damon's curiosity-led content, this book is it's own hybrid version of storytelling。 He recognizes that being a global citizen--which is how he refers to fellow nomads and explorers--is an ongoing reflection and conversation with the self, which is also what fuels it。 He wants readers to challenge, question, and think about their realities + roots, and come along for this journey along the route they choose。 If you're a fellow fan of Damon's content and appreciate storytelling that weaves in a two-way conversation in the form of a guided journal, YOU ARE A GLOBAL CITIZEN combines both in the exploratory and musing style Damon is known for。If you're craving a reflective tool to grow with, are an avid journal-er, or want to examine your place in the world alongside a traveler who has seen a lot of it, YOU ARE A GLOBAL CITIZEN is now boarding。~Personal miscellaneous favorites~: the EXTERNAL section, a very fitting Alan Watts quote, Damon's story about the Wanderlust dance club, the Love & Relationships and Sexuality chapters, Damon's recognition of geographical truths in the Politics chapter, the beautiful title, and bonus points for this perfect cover design。 。。。more
