Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This non-fiction book contains hard-earned advice on how to travel Australia and return home safe, healthy and, above all, alive. Each advice is illustrated with stories during which I learned them. They're all from my own travels - conducted back when I was still a naive, young person. The advices are grouped and sorted by source and extent of the hazard. The biggest risk gets explained first: You. Followed by: Other people, then companies and organizations. Finally (and only then) australian cliche hazards: animals, weather, geography, natural disasters. And, since you'll be travelling: transportation - alone, with others, during hikes or group travel. For example, I explain how to properly apply sunscreen (in short: every other hour, nighttime excluded) and tell about how I got a (natural!) tan while it rained. I explain to outsiders why Vegemite is good for you (and a funny way to spot the non-initiated). Don't drive a car at night - I did, and I'm listing everything I barely missed (the least of that were animals). You might have been told the Police was there "to protect and to serve" but they don't always live up to that - I witnessed them arresting those needing help! Don't hitchhike - I tried that unsuccessfully for hours even though I were in busy places - and I'm telling you about that so you won't get lost in remote Australia or meet a serial killer. Animals aren't accustomed to meeting humans since the country is so spacious, so they just treat people like terrain and run across them. Road Trains aren't long trucks, but deadly avalanches - unless one makes a step to the side. And I explain the importance of carrying sufficient water - because the Outback isn't just blue skies and wide open space, but the largest sauna in the world! In short: Although Australia seems to be like home. it is not. This misapprehension can cost you your life. Finally, in order not completely deter the reader from traveling, I'm recounting several good experiences. For example about the drunken, gargantuan Aborigines who found my tiny elderly mother who got lost at night when visiting, and how they carefully guided her like a child. And about three tourists, standing alone at night in the middle of the desert, with a fresh glass of champagne under the stars. For readers impatient or just browsing, I here summarize advice I deem most important: * Take preventive measures. * What is unsafe to do at home is unsafe away from home. * Let someone you trust know where you're going so they can alert someone should you not arrive as planned. Tell them who to call - and then contact them when you're back in safety. * Read warning signs and follow their advice. Someone spent money and effort to put them there to save you. Recognize places and situations where no warning sign has been put up but should have been. * Drink plenty of water and bring sufficient supplies. * Wear sunscreen. * Bring a jumper.

This book was released on 2016-07-28 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While I traveled Australia, I was a very naive person. Only in retrospect I realized that many times I had gotten myself into dangerous situations and only got through them thanks to luck, intuition and well-meaning fellow people. This book contains my first-hand advice to support you in returning from traveling safely, healthy and - above all - alive. Each advice is illustrated with tales and anecdotes about how I learned it. Also available in German: ISBN 978-1512249958 At first, Australia may seem quite homelike to you - but this misapprehension can cost your life. The greatest source of danger is: you yourself - and that's what I'm starting this book with. Further, it's about dangers posed by other people, by Australia's cliche-dangers (animals, climate, natural disasters) and from getting around. As to not deter you entirely from traveling in Australia, this book closes with my most beautiful experiences. Here's a summary of the most important advice for readers impatient or just browsing: 1.) Wear sunscreen like a second skin. 2.) Keep distance from wild animals. 3.) Keep distance from where wild animals dwell (Which is pretty much everywhere). 4.) At night, refrain from driving your car outsides of settlements. There's nothing to see anyway - and if you do, it's likely to be too late. 5.) Don't listen to racists. they're just mean people. 6.) Take more water with you than you think you need. You'll need it. 7.) Always stay with the car. Rescue teams spot stranded cars earlier than lost wanderers. 8.) Marmite is great. It might tastes like the opposite of Nutella, but it helps to repel bloodsucking insects. 9.) Read warning signs in detail. Someone paid for them - just to save you. 10.) If it's risky at home, it's risky any place else. 11.) Tell someone where you go and when you plan to be there, then inform them once you got there. 12.) Always pack a jumper and a piece of cord."

Book excerpt: An exquisitely photographed exploration of what it is to find purpose, joy and connection in the simple things. 'In a time of infinite choice and possibility, Jodi has provided a grounded road map to becoming a grateful, settled soul.' Alexx Stuart, author of Low Tox Life 'I'm not here to nag you and tell you that you need to live with less stuff. Nor will I tell you that owning less is a sure and certain path to happiness. But let me tell you what it's like to carry all you own with you ... to reduce your consumption and increase your free time and to realise that everything you need in life can fit in a caravan along with those you love most ...' It is natural to fear uncertainty. But what if you embraced it, listened to your intuition and made the tiny or big decisions to slow life right down? What if you had more space in your life for connection to nature and those around you? What if you stepped off the treadmill and forged a new path? In Practising Simplicity, author and photographer Jodi Wilson shines a light on all the best things in life that don't cost money and how you can incorporate them into your lifestyle, whatever your circumstances. For her, the simplicity of living in a tiny home on wheels was at first terrifying but ultimately the essential answer to anxiety and overwhelm. A beautiful, unflinching encouragement to let go of the unnecessary, Practising Simplicity inspires us to celebrate the simple yet extraordinary joys that make life meaningful.

Book excerpt: Part memoir and part philosophical look at why we travel, filled with stories of Matt Kepnes' adventures abroad, an exploration of wanderlust and what it truly means to be a nomad. New York Times bestselling author of How to Travel the World on $50 a Day, Matthew Kepnes knows what it feels like to get the travel bug. After meeting some travelers on a trip to Thailand in 2005, he realized that living life meant more than simply meeting society's traditional milestones. Over 500,000 miles, 1,000 hostels, and 90 different countries later, Matt has compiled his favorite stories, experiences, and insights into this travel manifesto. Filled with the color and perspective that only hindsight and self-reflection can offer, these stories get to the real questions at the heart of wanderlust. Travel questions that transcend the basic "how-to," and plumb the depths of what drives us to travel — and what extended travel around the world can teach us about life, ourselves, and our place in the world. Ten Years a Nomad is a heartfelt comprehension of the insatiable craving for travel, unraveling the authenticity of being a vagabond, not for months but for a fulfilling decade.

Book excerpt: Outback Survival is a timeless, practical run down on everything you need to know to survive in the outback. Bob Cooper's incredible bushcraft skills have been developed through more than 25 years of experience in Australia's harsh outback. He has picked up tools of survival from the experiences of living with traditional Aboriginal communities, instructing with Special Forces Units, lecturing with the Texas Parks and Wildlife Service on desert survival in the Mexican Desert, delivering wilderness lessons in the UK and learning the skills of the bushmen of the Kalahari Desert in Botswana. Bob has put his own lessons to the test, dropping himself off in the 42C heat of the Australian desert with only a map and soap box sized survival kit, no food, water or sleeping gear, and a 10 day walk across 160km of rough terrain back to safety. He did this alone and showed that with the right knowledge of the land, you can survive in even the harshest of conditions. The outback of Australia is one of the most unforgiving regions of the world, but Bob is committed to protecting and enhancing the experience people have when venturing out into the bush.
