5.0 out of 5 stars Rocked my world!!, 6 Feb 2004

By A Customer

this book is amazing, it turns talkers into doers, i keep putting off my gap year(i've just finished uni) but after reading this i am well up for going.

i has a great layout with small chapters, i read the whole thing on my way home from uni, which useful hit and tips, you really will get the travel bug if you read it.

Tom is also the author of the virgin travellers guide, if you have to pick between the books pick 'before you go' the content i feel is better and the paper is nicer lol
