I really don’t think this has aged well. ( )

The 1991 DAVE BARRY'S ONLY TRAVEL GUIDE YOU'LL EVER NEED by the aforementioned Dave Barry is as funny today as it was when it was first published. Sure, the world has changed but that is mostly due to wi-fi, the internet and those instant coffee machines with the little cups. People are still the same, the countries of the world are still out there although slightly rearranged, and you still can't drink the water in South America, but funny remains funny.
And Dave Barry is funny.
So if you are planning a trip and want some great advice, get a real guide book. But if you want to stay on the patio, grilling burgers and swatting flies, here is your introduction to the world.
Warning: Take the advice offered in this book at your own risk. You may hazard splitting sides, rude stares from your neighbors on the bus, or soda snorting out your nose.
Read at your own peril. Remember, you were warned! ( )

Hit-or-miss. Not Dave Barry's best book by a long shot, but hilarious in parts. Certainly worth a read. ( )

In comparison to some of Dave's other books, this is perhaps not *quite* as funny, but it's still very entertaining indeed. My favourite parts were the "Practical (insert language) phrases", especially the French phrases, which made me laugh so hard I cried. Some parts of the book felt very familiar, but I've read so much Dave Barry over the years that I wouldn't be surprised if I'd seen some comments before. Recommended for fans. ( )

really funny in places but a little of dave goes a long way and i was only listening about 15 minutes a day! ( )
