More About This Book

Overview

Andrew Hyde spent the last two years on the road traveling to 15 countries with only a backpack of 15 things to his name, this book is a collection of stories as a critique of the world of modern travel.


“Andrew gave up his routine, comforts and all his possessions - except his backpack - to live a life that most only dream about.”
-Kathy Sierra

"This book is much more than a travel log. It is a portrait of the inquisitiveness of the human spirit, narrated by an objective, analytical and self-aware voice."
-Natty Zola — Everlater.com

    "Travel needs you. It needs you to decide to go someplace and stand with a proud intention..." Most people talk about travel, but Andrew actually does it. He pushes you to re-think your life. To open up to possibilites. Not only does this book challenge you to take a step back and look at your relationship to travel, it makes you look at your relationship to life.

    A great read for anyone who is travel hungry or needs to push to get off of your couch and begin living your life. And Live a GOOD life.
