FINALIST in Foreword Indies Book Award (Adventure, Sport and Recreation)
#1 BESTSELLER ON AMAZON SINGAPORE Ranked #1 in Travel Writing, Travel Memoirs, and Sports Biographies.

Pushing a skateboard across South America is an inefficient way to travel—and that is exactly the point.

World On Board: Pushing South is a travel memoir about choosing the least efficient way to cross a continent—and committing to it anyway.

Between 2017 and 2019, Adrian Oh pushed a longboard and a heavily modified jogging stroller across South America, moving from Colombia through Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia, Chile, and Patagonia to the southern edge of the world. Traveling at human speed, he navigated borders, headwinds, extreme landscapes, and long stretches of solitude, relying on quiet problem-solving rather than ambition or spectacle.

This is not a guidebook or a record-chasing adventure. Along the way, Oh sleeps in abandoned classrooms, shares the road with pilgrims walking thousands of kilometres, negotiates absurd bureaucracy, and reflects on endurance without heroics. The journey unfolds through small decisions and ordinary days rather than dramatic triumphs.

Written with dry humour and restraint, World On Board: Pushing South is for readers who enjoy thoughtful travel writing, slow movement, and honest accounts of persistence. It is a record of curiosity, discomfort, and what remains when you remove performance, purpose, and efficiency from the idea of adventure.
