I will be reviewing this book in the spring, but here's a little taste the author sent me to get you interested. I can't wait to get to it!


AROUND THE WORLD IN 80 TALES

80 Stories, 25 Countries, 5 Continents, One Heck of a Ride!

Travel is an amazing experience and I’ve spent years of my life living out of my backpack.

I’ve explored well-beaten tourist trails and to far corners beyond them. Each journey is an

adventure and each adventure gives with a story to tell. So one day I decided that yes, I

would write 80 of my best Travel Stories.

After leaving me speechless, travel then turned me into a storyteller!

AROUND THE WORLD IN 80 TALES is:

TRUTHFUL: Firstly and perhaps most importantly, when you read a travel story, you want

it to be genuine. You don’t want to read some fictional account of something that never

happened written by someone who’s never been there! All my stories are completely true

and related exactly as they happened. Nothing in my book has been contrived or

exaggerated.

CONCISE: Each of my stories have been intentionally edited to 500 words that all fit neatly

onto one page. This has often meant making every word count! The result is that you can

enjoy each adventure without having to read any unnecessary diction.

VIBRANT: While many travel books are only text, Around the World in 80 Tales is packed

with colour photos. With the exception of only a few, they are all photos are my own

photography or taken on my own camera. All the images have an explanatory caption with

them.

INFORMATIVE: You want a travel story to be entertaining right? And it would be also nice

if you could learn about different places too? Around the World in 80 Tales provides

exactly that, page after page! Aside from relating my personal experiences, I’ve also

included numerous relevant facts and historical information.

DIVERSE: My stories have been rearranged from the original order they were written in.

This was done to create a fascinating journey through a diverse range of travel situations

and activities. As the pages turn, you’ll be taken on adventures such as snorkelling in

Malaysia to hiking in Nepal and camel riding in Morocco. Enjoy the ride!

A FINAL WORD

I’ve found that travel is a kaleidoscope of people, places, events, history, culture, food and

fun. Through the pages of my book, I’ll bring it all to life for you. The stories are fascinating,

inspiring, amusing and amazing. Some are even a little crazy but collectively they are an

insight into the unique adventures of travelling the world on a budget.
