About the Book

What could possibly go wrong when a 21- year old man decides to fire up his set of wheels; his beautiful café racing Moto Guzzi and head for somewhere, yet nowhere- in response to his desire to explore; break free from his mediocre, middle-class life and reach out for the unknown?

What could go wrong during a 50,000 mile travel across the world, through 33 countries, executed by an unleashed 20-year old, making the spiritual transition to become a man?

As it turns out, a ton of things could go wrong, but a life-time of lessons would be learned as well- the hard way.

Ready for a journey of discovery through the eyes of someone who experienced all the horror, excitement, thrill, and hell; a boy turned man?

Keep reading!

Since the first set of people roamed the earth, boys have been transitioning into men by setting off on journeys without particular destinations. For some, it was nothing more than an aimless wandering into the bush but for others, it has been a tale whose personas never lived to tell. Nevertheless, it has over the millennia been a necessity; an important phase and time for self-assessment and self-discovery.

This transition, though often dangerous and risky in many cultures, must have reached its highest peak in history in the early 1980s when a regular odyssey of a boy in his early 20s turned into a near-death experience filled with momentous and deadly catch 22s.

With the trigger happy boys soldiers armed with AK-47 in war-torn Africa, the Andes and the catastrophes of the Sahara desert to the disease in South America only describing the tip of the iceberg, Chris Donaldson's book takes you on a devastatingly blood-rushing and thrilling journey as you experience the tumultuous adventure just as it happened decades ago.

Question is, are you interested in finding out:

- How a young man's personality and sanity can endure before being challenged and changed by strains and stresses of solo traveling?

- How one of the last true explorers to discover the world, before the internet, changed traveling forever?

- How a wild journey dogged by misfortune, trouble, and fantasy ends?

If you are, then this book is what you've been looking for!
