So basically I got this book and thought, this looks total bants. So I read it, and to sum it all up it was totes hilaries and told me everything you need to know about everywhere you need to go (all the important stuff like cash/lash ratio).

That's enough of that now though, on a more serious and less posh note it was surprisingly informational whilst being......funny. No other word for it to be honest, it sums it up perfectly. It was particularly good for me as I know so many people EXACTLY like Orlando, with too much money but so used to it that you can laugh at them in good nature.

For a student it is most definitley a must read even if your not going on a gap year I can't recommend it enough. It is one of those you must have a look to get the feel though, hence the tiny review but I promise that it can make you laugh at least once if not at every page.

Bloody brilliant banter. Orlando obv had a totes amazeballs gap yah, which only makes you want to take a proper gap yah on your own and make a connection to different cultures. As he writes, you should always be with an eye out for the anecdote so you could have better banter, and not be like these raally boring banter vacuums. Yah, and write a book about it, yah. Massive.

As shameless attempts to cash in on a viral video go, this is one of the better ones. Join Orlando as he uses mummy and daddy's credit card to fund a global adventure that will see him join the ranks of Real Travellers™ (definitely not tourists). A light-hearted take on the middle-class gap year experience, not to be taken too seriously. 7/10

his anecdotes were boring, the only fun parts in the book were the 'scrapbook' parts.

Книжка пустоватая, но хорошая. Юмор у чувака простой, но смешной. Тройку поставил из зависти) Lash-cash ratio - крутота.

Loads of bants

Absolutely hilarious with lots of still relevant information, with subtle comments about the nature of charity, communism and class.

Wondrously written for the genre that it is.
