For those looking for a travel guide on recommended sites to see and accommodation etc. you are barking up the wrong tree here. If you are looking to hear about someone's personal travel experience in a bio/memoir/journal style then please buy this book. There are some incredible adventures, strong opinions and some graphic details but it is worth the read. The author tells his stories in a manner that make you feel as though you are at a pub or cafe hearing these thinking wow and I dare say learning something along the way. I found myself experiencing the moment remember the sounds and smells of places that I had traveled to in common and those that I have not I began to imagine them. The writing really takes you there. I was always excited to begin a new chapter to find out where the author was going to be next and what was going to happen. There were a few repetitious sections and a little globe trotting where I had thought that country/region/continent was sort of dealt with and then you seem to be brought back there again but otherwise an awesome book. You really feel the passion for travel and culture. Hands down one of my favorite travel books and can think of a dozen personal friends right now that I am going to recommend this book to!… (plus d'informations)
