When curiosity and risk go too far, will she listen to the epiphany that could save her from losing it all?

Alika Jones is a free spirit traveling the world on the edge. Emotional and psychological complexities drive this raw and vulnerable story of an unconventional life. Sun Kissed & Salted will propel you through a woman's wild escapades while diving deeply into her soul.

A near-death experience is just the start of a story about an eccentric woman who travels the world on a whim, oblivious that she has bipolar disorder and naïvely self-medicates with drugs, alcohol, and risky adventures. Alika Jones is a thrill seeker whose distorted instincts get her into trouble, and yet whose intuition fortunately gets her out of the bizarre circumstances she finds herself in. Growing up in a troubled household during the 1970s and 80s in Los Angeles sets her up on shaky ground, and she elopes with a handsome hustling street musician who whisks her away to Europe. Alika immerses herself in life on the streets, hitchhiking north to London, where the gritty realities of busking and squatting have her in survival mode. The couple finds ways to travel to Japan, Thailand, West Africa, and Mexico, driven by curiosity. Exploration of new cultures, playing their music, and entertaining crowds propel the story until a mysterious occurrence eventually guides Alika away from her abusive husband. She ventures into the world alone, vulnerable, and on the fringe of society, finding that harrowing and outlandish circumstances lie ahead. Ultimately, she discovers the freedom she seeks is found when she takes responsibility and becomes honest with herself. This is the shift that marks the beginning of her transformation.
