Book excerpt: The series started from a longing to want to travel after hearing all the good and bad tales from long term backpackers.Every single piece that made it and didn't make it in this is book has a special place in my heart as they were the beginning of a journey of a memory that never happened, but a longing that was constant.We all naturally have it in us to wonder and wander, it's just a matter of allowing it to take you to places.
