Two strangers teamed up for a once-in-a-lifetime journey that left
them both changed forever. What were they thinking? Nancy and John
arrived in Pakistan with little more than bikes and dreams. The
ensuing year found them pedaling remote pathways of Asia, over
mountains and through deserts, dodging traffic, holy cows - and the
occasional rock thrown at them from a cliff by hostile locals. They
explored back roads and tiny villages rarely exposed to western
eyes and, after being amazed, repulsed, delighted, shocked,
horrified, amused and welcomed by people of many races, these
strangers in a strange land melded into the cultures they
encountered... and fell in love, both with the beauty of the lands
they traveled and, ultimately, with each other. Join Nancy and John
wondering what they were thinking as they: - experience the
traditional hospitality of families of various religions - are
stranded at 15,000 feet in the Himalayas - sleep with holy rats in
a temple - smell, hear, and see funeral pyres on the Ganges River -
are mobbed like rock stars in Bangladesh - fend off unwanted
romantic advances from misled men - are swept away in markets
frozen in time - learn that underneath the cultural traditions,
people are pretty much the same everywhere
