Book excerpt: In 1974, at the height of hippie culture, women's liberation and sexual freedom, the author set off on a journey that lasted nineteen months through Central and South America and included the birth of her daughter in the Andean highlands of Ecuador. As an artist, she kept a journal of over 100 pen-and-ink and watercolor illustrations of the places she visited. Traveling with her eccentric boyfriend by train, plane, bus, ship and hitchhiking, she encountered many unusual situations and people and even a tropical disease, Leishmaniasis, that a local healer called leprosy. Finding a house to rent in Otavalo, Ecuador, the author created acrylic paintings of the incredible landscape surrounding her home, while she was pregnant. Her mother came to Ecuador to be with her when she gave birth with her father arriving a week later to meet his granddaughter. This book displays the artwork she created and tells the unique story of her travels and her evolution as an artist and mother living in Ecuador in a time before technology.

Book excerpt: A lust for travel and adventure drives the Messiah of Budget Travel and his unwitting disciples to extraordinary lengths as they strive to journey a bit further and a bit longer. None more so than the Tightwad Economist, who has just $3000 and ten months to get from Los Angeles to Santiago de Chile. Budget about $10 a day for transport, food, accommodation, visas and booze. This tale chronicles the adventures of Tightwad and his Gringo mates on the Gringo Trail in the early 1990s when post offices and the Gringo grapevine were communications bread and butter for travellers. Much of Central America was just emerging from civil wars and ruthless dictatorships, while South American countries struggled with drugs, and poverty and a reputation for violence and corruption. Tightwad and his mates dispel some of the myths as they irreverantly ply the trail and open their eyes to the magic of Latin America.

Book excerpt: With little more than backpacks and desire for adventure, Mark Mann and two friends set out on an expedition through Ecuador, Bolivia, and Colombia, submerging themselves in Latin culture. Through dense forests, daunting mountains, and pristine beaches, the trio makes its way — in a drug-induced haze. Soon the drugs become an all-consuming addiction that changes the lives of Mann and his friends forever. This is an engaging travelogue and frank memoir evokes the magical realism of South American literature. “Darkly comic, ultimately shocking, and packed with astute observations.” — Geographical

Download or read book The Only Gringo written by Robert Lanz and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-08-02 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paul Theroux never made reservations as he a rode old trains around the world. Tim Cahill didn't book an adventure travel specialist when he ended up in the worlds weirdest places. Not knowing what will happen is the adventure in adventure travel. Before adventure travel web sites and adventure travel magazines and blogs there was just travel. It was more of a "wherever you go, there you are" mindset put forward in the People's Guide to Mexico. When you travel alone, strange things happen.Close calls, questionable decisions, the road not taken becomes the road not on the map. Somewhere between dazed and confused and Hunter S. Thompson, Robert Lanz channels both Dr. Phil and Dr. Drew and sometimes Forest Gump, hitting the gringo trail when it wasn't always well marked. And between his travels he always ends up back at his straight job as a psychiatric social worker in a busy Emergency Room where the list of "everything else" is long and challenging and where the adventures are every bit as intense as those on the road. A good social worker no matter where he is has good stories. Of course they don't all end well, but well, they end. Some of his stories make you cry. Some make you laugh. Some are disgusting. Some piss you off. Hey, just like a night in the ER.

Download or read book To Find written by J. R. Klein and published by del Gato. This book was released on 2019-10 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The year was 1980. I had just completed a doctoral degree at Johns Hopkins University. I was burned out. Life had become dull, routine, monotonous. With a mere four hundred and ninety-five dollars in my pocket, I set out with photographer friend, Stefan Kale, on a trek through Mexico and Central America. TO FIND is the story of an adventure across raw deserts, up into remote mountain villages, out onto pristine islands, and deep into tropical rain forests. Relegated to the most basic forms of transportation - peasant buses, dilapidated trains, and more often than not using our thumbs to snag a ride - we lived an existence devoid of plans, destinations, and schedules. Above all, TO FIND is an excursion of the soul. It is a kaleidoscope of exhilarating experiences that includes mystical encounters with the lost civilization of the Maya, a deadly tropical hurricane...and much more.

Book excerpt: Searching for even more wild places and new experiences, Dan became determined to explore 'off the map' in Africa. From the mighty Sahara Desert in the north to the dense equatorial jungles of the Congo and the open grasslands of Southern Africa, Dan turned his biggest dream into reality. Over the course of three years Dan's second major expedition spanned fifty-four thousand miles through thirty-five unique African countries. THE ADVENTURE WAS A THOUSAND TIMES BIGGER THAN HE DREAMED POSSIBLE. After exploring the Pan-American Highway from Alaska to Argentina Dan became hooked on the freedom of global overland travel, and he only wanted more. New languages, exotic foods, stunning landscapes and local people with an entirely different outlook became Dan's everyday life. As the months turned into years, through highlights and despair Dan gained a new appreciation for what it truly means to be alive. Viewing our modern world through African eyes gave Dan a new perspective, and he was pulled in by the endless joy, laughter and kindness at every turn. While the landscapes and wildlife are undeniably breathtaking, it is the natural warmth of the African people that is truly unforgettable. All across the continent Dan was welcomed with love and generosity, and now he will never be the same.

Download or read book On the Plain of Snakes written by Paul Theroux and published by Eamon Dolan Books. This book was released on 2019 with total page 459 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Legendary travel writer Paul Theroux drives the entire length of the US-Mexico border, then goes deep into the hinterland, on the back roads of Chiapas and Oaxaca, to uncover the rich, layered world behind today's brutal headlines. Paul Theroux has spent his life crisscrossing the globe in search of the histories and peoples that give life to the places they call home. Now, as immigration debates boil around the world, Theroux has set out to explore a country key to understanding our current discourse: Mexico. Just south of the Arizona border, in the desert region of Sonora, he finds a place brimming with vitality, yet visibly marked by both the US Border Patrol looming to the north and mounting discord from within. With the same humanizing sensibility he employed in Deep South, Theroux stops to talk with residents, visits Zapotec mill workers in the highlands, and attends a Zapatista party meeting, communing with people of all stripes who remain south of the border even as their families brave the journey north. From the writer praised for his "curiosity and affection for humanity in all its forms" (New York Times Book Review), On the Plain of Snakes is an exploration of a region in conflict.
