Journey

Journey is a guide to traveling in the developing world independent of organized itineraries, guide book recommendations; and far from the back-packing tourist trail. Journey is also a book that presents methods and attitudes that help the reader approach the concept of adventure travel from a new perspective. Tim's travel philosophy invites the would-be adventurer to pursue more than simply the seeing of sights and the gathering of experiences, and instead view every adventure and every trip as a journey of discovery. The straightforward writing style that Tim uses helps the reader understand the need to cultivate an awareness of the potential for inner growth inherent in independent travel, and each section of the book is packed with clear and reliable methods that encourage the reader to engage in authentic adventure. Based on Tim's 30 years of travel in the developing world, the inside knowledge presented in Journey gives the reader an insight into how to get the most out of independent travel. The many tips and recommendations collected from fellow travelers over the years have been compiled with the intention of supporting readers with useful information in regard to the many essential practicalities prior to each and every trip, as well as imparting behaviors and attitudes that will pave the way for anyone to approach the world of independent travel with confidence.
