5.0 out of 5 stars It will make you smile inside, 1 Feb 2009
If you have ever backpacked, or are thinking of embarking on a trip, then this is the book for you! For me, it brought back sparkling memories of travels in Thailand and Australia. For others, it may inspire you to take the trip of a lifetime!

While being funny, enjoyable and entertaining, this book also subtly explores the choices and decisions we make in life - in each of our searches for happiness.

Totally recommend it!

5.0 out of 5 stars FIVE STARS, 27 Jan 2009
By Jules C (N. Ireland) - See all my reviews
Chasing Dreams is a wonderful novel set against the backpacking and surf world in Thailand and Australia. This is a very enjoyable read that made my feet itch to hit the road.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great must read!, 16 Jan 2009
When Matt heads off around the world for a year, he's dreaming of tropical beaches and parties. Instead he finds himself hiding from the police, robbed, stranded and hungover. In learning who to trust Matt finds his past won't stop catching up and screwing everything up.

Sure to become a classic among backpackers and surfers all over the world. I highly recommend it!

I presume the author picked up his travel diary from when he was 18, felt fuzzy on the inside with nostalgia and presumed other people would be interested. Read more
