If you take on board the health warning, sit back and let it happen. I hope that young and old get something from my travelog. Having had the chance to travel the world I want to share some of the insights that I have had. I make no apology for my irrepressible sense of humour which kept me going when the traveling got tough.

If you take on board the health warning, sit back and let it happen. I hope that young and old get something from my travelog. Having had the chance to travel the world I want to share some of the insights that I have had. I make no apology for my irrepressible sense of humour which kept me going when the traveling got tough. I had no idea there was a writer in me only to realise that we are limited in a common strand of humanity so, I think a lot of people would appreciate exactly where I am coming from. It is surprising how vulnerable you become, taking part in other cultures, having to see everything from a different perspectives. You start with the idea that there is only one constant in all of this: yourself: 'Yes, but exactly who am I?' On this journey of discovery I have met many people, some amaziing: some out to take advantage of you, wherever you are in the world, I guess you will confront such a wide range of human characteristics. Throughout I have been struck by the mobility of those who have so little by way of comfort in their lives yet are generous to a fault. It certainly makes you realise, just how fortunate we are in the west. Part of my travels are given to describe the sights and sounds that characterise different pictures, but the emphasis has always been on meeting and interacting with the wealth of people - not their monetary wealth, but the composite that makes up the human spirit. If some of the culinary delights made me ill and reduced me to a skeletal proportions the human experience has undoubtedly made me grow in stature. Welcome to the hilarious humour of WOODY'S WORLD.

Autorenporträt
John Wood aka Woody, was born in Kent in 1975. There are three children in the family making Woody honourable son number two; well thats what the birth certificate says although we are still waiting for the adoption papers!His formative years were spent in Kent. John started school at theage of three, dancing his way through the evening to curb his excess energy. Today such a child would be classified as having ADHD. At the age of 11 gained a scholarship to stage school, serious training fuelled self-discipline respect for authority challenging Woody both mentally and physically.

A back injury curtailed his dancing career. Good luck bad luck who knows; however it certainly added something to sharpen Woody's irrepressible optimism.There were wilderness years, until he joined the police force,every day a new challenge for him. Woody 's eyesgradually adjusted to theidiosyncrasies of the society in which we live.His sense of humour developed as a palliative to some of the extreme situations which he had to deal with, not such a difficult task for a guy with a natural talent for making people laugh.

Mums plaintive suggestion that such humorous feast should be recorded were totally ignored but such an idea would come back to bite him.The chance was there to take asabbatical year to travel the world.The journey would start in South East Asia and turn left into Oz, right to N.Z. and then full circle through South America, USA and Canada. You are invited to share the experience - join him in South East Asia.
