Lonely Planet knows that some of life’s funniest experiences
happen on the road. Whether they take the form of unexpected
detours, unintended adventures, unidentifiable dinners or
unforgettable encounters, they can give birth to our most profound
travel lessons, and our most memorable – and hilarious – travel
stories. This collection presents 31 globegirdling tales that run
the gamut from close-encounter safaris to loss-of-face follies,
hair-raising rides to culture-leaping brides, eccentric expats to
mind-boggling repasts, wrong roads taken to agreements mistaken.
The collection brings together some of the world’s most renowned
travelers and storytellers with previously unpublished writers.
