What's inside?
Former Lonely Planet CEO Daniel Houghton argues that the world is smaller and friendlier than you might think.
Recommendation
More casual light reading than practical globetrotting guide, Daniel Houghton’s collection of interviews with travel industry colleagues touches on why travel is important for personal growth. He explores how travel connects people and destroys barriers, and travel’s environmental and economic effects. He interviews Kevan Chandler, a disabled young man who traveled in a backpack carried by his friends and Laura Dekker, the youngest woman to solo circumnavigate the globe on a sailboat. Houghton’s book is recommended reading for people who make excuses to stay home.
