Dreaming about taking a trip of a lifetime? How about making a lifestyle out of traveling the world? For over 30 years John Bucher Herr with his wife Martha have been doing just that! John shows in his books how to experience the world in comfort by avoiding travel agents and dealing directly with the airlines and hotels. By learning the difference between a tourist and a traveler, John learned to succeed at luxury travel without the luxury price tag. Why pay $75 per night when the same hotel will lease a room for $700/month? Why buy full price when you can snag deals from airlines who have unsold seats? If your bucket list is long, the odds are with you for many experiences of low cost travel.


In this book John describes life with the nomads on his journey from Beijing to Ulaanbaator on the Trans-Siberian Railway.
