Looks at what the author learnt on his quixotic quest, namely: if all you have between birth and death is a journey, and if the journey is all we have, then wouldn't it be best to make it fun? This book asserts that mantras as simple as 'Do something silly' or 'Find the courage to follow your intuition' can make life more enjoyable.

Many moons ago, a foolhardy attempt to win a drunken bet resulted in Tony Hawks embarking on a journey around Ireland with his trusty travelling companion-cum-domestic appliance, his fridge. The journey became an inspirational and, at times, downright silly adventure which was chronicled in a book that went on to be an international bestseller — Round Ireland with a Fridge.
In The Fridge-Hiker's Guide to Life, Tony looks back on what he learnt on his quixotic quest. Namely: if all you have between birth and death is a journey, then wouldn't it be best to make it fun? Looking back on the many encounters he had along the way — occasionally fraught, frequently hilarious and sometimes poignant — and the colourful cast of characters he met, Tony realizes that following mantras is sometimes as simple as "Do something silly."
