About The Book
Description
Author
<B><P>'Backpacking With A Bunion'</B> is a travelogue of discovery and adventure across the countries of S E Asia. The journey begins in Bangkok - where else; and ends up on the island of Flores in Indonesia. My story as a mature 'gapper' is outlined in the Introduction as well as some of the highlights from my trip. The reader if so inclined could follow my journey on a map - it works quite well as a jigsaw though I have certainly left plenty of room for flexibility and spontaneity. Travel like life is not always straightforward but that's the joy in it.</P><P>&nbsp;&nbsp; Each chapter is given a descriptive heading to&nbsp;provide a unique flavour to the areas visited. They are roughly in chronological order to give a sense of continuity to my travelling over a period of eighteen months but could stand alone as set pieces. I have tried to make the book as varied as possible with various quotations travellers' tales and humour and more serious religious cultural political and environmental observations.</P><P>&nbsp;&nbsp; I have included some facts and figures (where appropriate) on history geography transport arrangements places of interest and personal experiences thus painting a picture in words of sights sounds and happenings. </P><P></P><P>&nbsp;&nbsp; The book concludes with S E Asia in a nutshell a summary of what the traveller might expect and emphasising that travelling changes the traveller. And hopefully reading this book will change the reader's perspective too. </P>
