In this bizarre, comical, travel memoir, Mark sets out on a quest to traverse from Sydney, Australia to London, England without taking a single flight. His extraordinary, epic journey takes him through 3 continents and 18 countries, via famous cities like Singapore, Bangkok, Istanbul, Budapest and Berlin, and unknown spots like Coober Pedy, Maha Salakham, Aktau, Sheki and Guca.
Follow him as he catches a cargo ship across the Indian Ocean, runs a gauntlet of Chinese tanks and terrorists, has beers with a naked ex-Soviet Officer in Kazakhstan, attends a 3 day Serbian trumpet festival, visits a German nuclear bunker, and eats magic mushrooms for breakfast in Amsterdam. As he trots across the globe, every step of the way he tells it like it is, with opinionated, off-kilter views, slightly twisted, left-field logic, and witty, wry humour.
You’ll laugh and be entertained as you learn about the world and what it takes to travel it.
