Produktbeschreibung
With one hundred dollars in his pocket, his thumb out, and a backpack on his back, the author embarks upon a hitchhiking journey across America, taking him deep within the distinctive American landscape of the early 1970s and an aimless adventure unfolds into an unforeseen spiritual awakening. Returning home, but now driven by the fiery blaze of an unquenchable wanderlust, the author begins a tireless journey across the planet, on a bare bones budget, backpacking throughout Europe, Latin America, the Middle East, Southeast Asia, Nepal, India, Sri Lanka, and deep into the heart of the Islamic world, following the legendary overland trail to India. An extraordinary tale of travel is a multi-layered, raw and detailed account of one solitary traveler and a six year odyssey taking him to the outermost edges of the road, written from a perspective seldom found in traveler's tales.
Autorenporträt
Steve Hannes spent six years budget backpacking through thirty-one countries, financing his travels by waiting tables at a beach resort on the Maryland Shore, a seasonal job he returned to every summer. Prudently saving his hard earned gratuity, he would embark upon a new and different journey each year at season's end, and remain on the road until the following summer. He has now chosen to share the story of the wandering life he lived in his youth, a daunting task and truly a labor of love, taking fifteen years to complete. It is the author's hope for his book to not only entertain, but also serve as an inspiration to those who dream of travel, and warm the hearts of those who have experienced the vagabond life.
