Travel Tales: Michael's Own Top 25: True Travel Tales, #1
()
About this ebook
THIS SERIES
Over the last few decades, I've interviewed nearly 2,000 world travelers and adventurers. I am weaving the best of their nearly 10,000 fantastic travel tales into a psychology of travel as revealed by these very telling stories. These are travelers I've encountered on planes, trains, buses, ships, tours, safaris, and in campgrounds, hotels, restaurants, cafes, and pubs. These courageous travelers have freely shared their most personal travel experiences, some good and wonderful and others even horrific and life-threatening, which I, in turn, get to share with you now through my True Travel Tales series.
THIS BOOK
Travel Tales: Michael's Own Top 25, is the first book of the True Travel Tales series and includes the 25 best of my own personal travel tales in my rich and varied travel life that has taken me to more than 125 countries. For the full collection of the 150 best of my own personal travel tales — (that actually includes the entirety of this first book as Part 1 of three) —you may want to read instead the expanded collection of 150 stories included in Michael's Own Best 150. I would recommend you skip the lite version, Michael's Own Top 25, altogether, and obtain, the expanded edition, Michael's Own Best 150. But if you are only initially interested in a first look at the True Travel Tales series, then Michael's Own Top 25 would be a good choice.
My travel tales include a selection of my best, worst, funniest, most embarrassing, and truly most horrific travel experiences, that by virtue of their emotional impact upon me have now become my most memorable and interesting travel stories today. From my unique perspective of being the world's first 'travel psychologist,' I think you'll find my own personal travel experiences riveting, informative, funny, and entertaining. Please enjoy! While some people say that some of my stories are riotous, others say that I should be kept locked up at home and not allowed to travel anywhere! These events as revealed in my travel tales, as unbelievable as some of them may seem to be, really did happen to me!
