Synopsis :

“...adventure, danger and humour all skillfully laced with a fantastically descriptive narrative”

“A brilliant book that I couldn’t put down. Five stars!”

“Inspiring. Books like this are what encouraged me to travel to places off the beaten track.”

“A fascinating read. Every page paints a picture. Thoroughly recommended.”

Meet a man born with a large dose of wanderlust. A man who once bought a one-way ticket to South America after a dull day at the office!  His plan was simple, land, then head north...instead, he went south! And that was back before the internet and smartphones made travel easy.  Six months later with less than 200 bucks left in his back pocket, he landed in Miami. Border control, however, had other ideas…

An earlier walkabout through Australasia lasted two years, leading eventually through Communist China not long after the country first opened its borders. Communication, money and getting around were the only real issues! From Peking, a risky 6-dayTrans Siberian railway ride just as the Soviet Union was collapsing brought some very close calls along the way.

Packed full of action, humour, unusual destinations and life-threatening moments the pages will transport you to twenty countries on five continents with bungy jumps, caving, Komodo dragons, sky-diving, foot-eating stingrays and active volcanos all in the mix!

“I don’t normally read books twice but this one I just had to!”
