Opis

Everyone dreams of escaping their mundane day-to-day lives and packing up, taking off to who-knows where to enjoy all of the weird and wonderful things that the Earth has to offer. Although it's just a pipe-dream for most people, author Chris Sedgwick decided to do just that. After years spent thinking about it but not acting on his dream, Chris finally took the plunge in 2012 to go out on a nine-month adventure across the globe. And after twenty-eight countries, over two hundred and fifty days and countless memories, Chris' entire life outlook had been completely changed forever. Starting his journey in Southeast Asia, Chris makes his way across the likes of South Africa and Central America, all the while chronicling the amazing sights, activities and people he was lucky enough to enjoy on the way. Devouring as much culture as he possibly could, Travel Bug saw Chris doing anything and everything he could get his hands on. From diving with bull sharks in Mexico to riding the cool sand-dunes of the Namib Desert, there wasn't a single part of the globe left untouched once Chris had finished his incredible journey. Written using deeply personal and frank autobiographical prose, the new inspirational real-life tale from Chris Sedgwick, Travel Bug: Journey of a British Backpacker, captures the beauty (and the sometimes ugly side) of all the exotic places the author found himself in over his nine-month life-changing experience. We aren't all lucky enough to be able to take off around the world, but with Travel Bug: Journey of a British Backpacker we can experience the next best thing.
