Around The World In Wonder Socks

The witty and sometimes poignant travel tales of a man with no plan. Armed only with an illegal air ticket, a small backpack and two pairs of very expensive socks, this is the story of a year spent randomly roaming the world with decisions big and small guided by a toss of the coin.
Around The World In Wonder Socks is packed with weird, wild and wonderfully heartwarming encounters across the globe. There are lovemaking tips from an Indonesian gigolo, mystical moments in ancient temples and the thrill of driving a passenger train in Burma.
The world's most beautiful woman tells of legendary encounters in Hollywood and Bronze Age tribes warn about the perils of standing on rocks. Along the way there are late night lock-ins with monks, touching tales from a Vietnamese war widow, two wedding proposals in ten minutes and etiquette tips for watching movies in Belgium and Laos.
Around The World In Wonder Socks is, above all, an encouragement call to put some sparkle, spontaneity, fun and excitement back into travel. It's also a timely reminder that the world is packed full of kind and decent people.
