In 25 chapters, 100,000 words, and 120 photos, John Gregory, an independent traveler who’s visited 35 countries, has written How to See the World. Not a travel guide to a specific location, How to See the World is a guide on how to travel. Filled with tips, commentary, and practical advice for the adventurous traveler, don’t confuse Gregory’s arid sense of humor with boring-ness. His guide is actually filled with a number of good jokes — and good advice.
I particularly enjoyed Gregory’s thoughts on where and how to crash for free, the toolbag theory, his list of essential items to pack, how to avoid pickpockets — and, of course, how to take a dump without facilities. In short, it’s hard-earned knowledge shared for free. Check it out.
