Whilst quarantining after international travel, an author reflects on his travels around six continents. Drawing from real life experiences of areas struck by tragedy and disaster, this is a book about the resilience of the human species, the beauty of nature and the joy of exploration. If you dream of travel, or want to reminisce on past expeditions, this book will take you from the bush-fires of Oceania, to the famines in Africa, through the tsunami in Asia, into the earthquakes of North America and the deforestation in South America, before ending up in the coronavirus infected Europe. The joy of travel mixed with the dangers of planet Earth.
