Overview

Mark Murphy is one of the country’s foremost travel experts. but what he hasn’t said on television adds another dimension entirely. This highly entertaining multimedia travelogue, complete with exclusive, unpublished video outtakes, focuses Murphy’s witty and perceptive lens on the culture of traveling, chronicling the dicey, humorous, sometimes bizarre and always entertaining experiences he encounters in far-flung locales when he’s not on camera. Here he reveals unforgettable characters and global humanity in all its quirkiness -- from a predatory Cougar Grandma in Germany to Dead Sea mud treatments, a wiseguy shakedown on a picturesque Greek island, serious partying in Ho Chi Minh City, strange food in Cambodia and much more.

Editorial Reviews

Rudy Maxa
If Anthony Bourdain wrote a travel book, this would be it. Mark Murphy brings a conversational voice, an impertinent 'tude, and a wry eye to life on the road. Read it twice!

    Down to Earth and Funny

    I follow Mark Murphy on his site, on Facebook and on Twitter and could not wait to get my hands on the book. It took me only 2 days to read as I could not put it down. It is funny, sincere and a great insight to the different cultures of the world.

    As an owner of a travel agency and a travel agent I would highly recommend this book to anyone and everyone to read. He gets into situations and places that you normally don't.

    Hopefully he will write another one and if he's at the AC Travel Agent Forum I hope to meet him and congratulate him in person on this wonderful read.
