'Backpacking With A Bunion' is a travelogue of discovery and
adventure across the countries of S E Asia. The journey begins in
Bangkok - where else; and ends up on the island of Flores in
Indonesia. My story as a mature 'gapper' is outlined in the
Introduction, as well as some of the highlights from my trip. The
reader if so inclined could follow my journey on a map - it works
quite well as a jigsaw, though I have certainly left plenty of room
for flexibility and spontaneity. Travel, like life is not always
straightforward, but that's the joy in it. Each chapter is given a
descriptive heading to provide a unique flavour to the areas
visited. They are roughly in chronological order to give a sense of
continuity to my travelling over a period of eighteen months, but
could stand alone as set pieces. I have tried to make the book as
varied as possible with various quotations, travellers' tales and
humour and more serious religious, cultural, political and
environmental observations. I have included some facts and figures
(where appropriate) on history, geography, transport arrangements,
places of interest and personal experiences, thus painting a
picture in words of sights, sounds and happenings. The book
concludes with S E Asia in a nutshell, a summary of what the
traveller might expect and emphasising that travelling changes the
traveller. And hopefully reading this book will change the reader's
perspective too.
