Addicted to travel, by the age of 28 Alasdair Vale had visited more than one hundred countries on a quest to visit every country, twice. Here, for the first time, he combines tales from across five continents and 103 separate countries. This book flows smoothly from extreme sports to extreme poverty, eating oddities to nearly being eaten alive by lions, being robbed to having his heart stolen. A must-read for new readers or anyone who has enjoyed Welcome to Civilisation or Europe the Hard Way. Whether you are an armchair traveller or a seasoned professional you will enjoy this book.
