I loved learning about the adventures of the auther, Amrut Patel. The stories flow well and are a fascinating glimpse into the real world adventures of someone who decided to start exploring the world is his 50s. I'm probably a bit biased here, since I'm a friend of Amrut's and read the book as part of the bookclub we are both in. It has inspired me to want to go and explore the world ... just need to be able to take the time to do it!
