This is not a how-to book, or a guide book. It is a why-to book.
RESTLESS is the true story of a young woman and her new husband who, against the better judgement of their friends and families, took off to experience the world for a few months and stayed away for almost ten years. From the trekking paths of the Himalaya to the challenges of China when it first opened its doors to individual tourists, this book describes what it's really like to get down and dirty with the locals across Asia and Northern Europe - on aeroplanes, buses, trains, and even bicycles.
Restless will show you what it's REALLY like to
Because they are the only ones that count.
