The book takes place in three different settings consisting of Italy, India and Indonesia. These are key elements to the progression of the author, Liz Gilbert's, life. First, in Italy, she retains residence in the city where she is accessible to a majority of different aspects of the Italian culture. She does this by taking classes of the language, eating all around the city, and taking in the sights of local and far destinations all across the country. She gained pounds of joy and happiness which she had lost over the past three years due to divorce. Next she moves to India to stay in an Ashram where she seeks the guidance of prayer to restore her faith. The time she spends here provides a period of reflection that she needed to help heal completely. Finally she arrives in Indonesia where she learns to love others again. This year dedicated to self exploration which takes place in three distinct locations, proves that you just need to take the time to figure out who you are and what you want in order to have an appreciation for the world around you.
