Synopsis
Travels With My Nan is no ordinary travelogue/memoir. Rather it’s a very personal, colourful, exciting (and even supernatural) true account of the author’s six-month extraordinary backpacking adventure in 1999 through seven Far-Eastern countries (Malaysia, Thailand, Laos, China, Indonesia, Australia and New Zealand). Just prior to this memorable six-month journey, the author’s nan passed away, so he took one of his favourite photographs of her with him so she could join him. ‘Together’ they encountered many fascinating people and diverse personalities from all walks of life – both good and bad – and saw angels, demons, ghosts, pirates and dragons, and came within five metres of being shipwrecked. As well as enjoying so many unforgettable experiences; falling in love (more than once), swimming with turtles and sharks, stumbling across paradise (with seven beautiful young girls) and discovering oases of sexual ecstasy, the author also endured challenging and terrifying times too. He was involved in not one but four motor vehicle accidents, and fell victim to a hit-and-run incident. He also had to contend with various health problems (from complex diseases, cuts and bites to painful sunburn), and he was robbed. In addition to the exciting and chilling rollercoaster of his backpacking escapades, the author also had a shocking and potentially life-changing spiritual/supernatural experience whilst visiting one of the Maoris’ most sacred and haunted places on earth. If you love a good yarn, discovering new cultures and lifestyles, and you enjoy reading about travel adventures with a memorable twist, Travels With My Nan is the perfect book for you. This superb storyteller shares his tales with humour, first-rate observations and an engaging narrative which will utterly absorb you from the start. So sit back, kick off your shoes and enjoy.
