AWESOME!! 2 July 2009
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
This book is fantastic! I started reading it the day it arrived and wasn't able to put it down. The thing I liked best about it is that it combines genuinely useful information if you're thinking about heading off into the big wide world and highly entertaining stories and anecdotes which made me laugh out loud. There's a healthy balance of realism in there too which I am sure dispels many travellers' myths going around!. I may be a bit beyond the traditional gap year age, but it made me want to buy a plane ticket and some sparkly flip flops and go!
I would totally recommend this book, indispensable if you're planning a trip and a darn funny read even if you're not!
