Strange Tales of World Travel

Autor Scott Gaille
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 8 mai 2019
"What's the strangest thing you've ever seen or experienced?"

Gina and Scott Gaille have traveled to more than 100 countries, including many off-the-beaten-path places in Africa, South America, and Asia. Wherever they go, they ask this question. Everyone has a story, and some are truly extraordinary.

Strange Tales of World Travel recounts 50 of these Bizarre, Mysterious, Horrible, Hilarious encounters, including:

  • Daring Diplomat, who ate the flesh of the venomous cobra bird in the Sahara Desert
  • Pearl Trader, who survived a fever through a harrowing human honey treatment in Oman
  • Agent Ghost, who was shot and left to die in a garbage dump in Africa
  • Death-Defying Instagrammer, who stepped on the tail of the world's sixth most venomous snake in Australia to take a better photo
  • Human Pet, who became a prince's prisoner in Qatar
  • Imperial CEO, who made a minion fly twelve hours to Paris from Abu Dhabi to buy clean underwear
  • Gorilla Doll, who broke the rules of visiting Rwandan gorillas and got dragged up the side of a volcano

    Strange Tales of World Travel presents unforgettable stories that celebrate the unique character of countries around the globe--and the distinctive characters that make travel endlessly intriguing and exhilarating.
