Embarking on a journey to Asia is an immersive experience that transcends the boundaries of ordinary travel. As you step into this vast and diverse continent, you find yourself enveloped in a tapestry of cultures, landscapes, and traditions that unfold before your eyes. The allure of Asia lies not just in its iconic landmarks but in the subtle details that paint each destination with a unique hue. From the bustling markets of Bangkok, where the aroma of street food mingles with the vibrant colors of stalls, to the serene landscapes of Kyoto, where ancient temples whisper tales of centuries past, every corner invites you to explore, to taste, and to absorb. The contrast between the modern skyscrapers of Singapore and the ancient wonders of Angkor Wat in Cambodia serves as a testament to Asia's ability to seamlessly blend the old and the new. It's a kaleidoscope of experiences, from the tranquil beaches of Bali to the chaotic energy of Delhi's bustling streets. Sampling the culinary delights is like embarking on a gastronomic odyssey. The rich flavors of Thai tom yum soup, the delicate dim sum in Hong Kong, or the savory delights of Indian curry - each dish tells a story of local traditions and centuries-old recipes passed down through generations. Yet, beyond the physical landscapes and culinary adventures, it's the warmth of the people that leaves an indelible mark on your journey. Whether you find yourself engrossed in conversations with locals in a tiny village or sharing laughter with fellow travelers in a crowded street market, the human connections in Asia add depth and meaning to your expedition. Navigating the chaotic streets of Hanoi or meandering through the serene backwaters of Kerala, you realize that the essence of Asia lies not just in the destinations but in the moments in between. It's the unexpected encounters, the hidden gems, and the genuine smiles that make the journey truly remarkable. In Asia, time seems to dance at its own pace, allowing you to savor each moment and appreciate the beauty in the ordinary. So, as you traverse this enchanting continent, be prepared to let go of preconceptions, embrace the unknown, and allow the spirit of Asia to weave its magic around you, creating memories that will linger long after your journey concludes.

The true story of an American woman who embarks on a mid-life pilgrimage to Egypt and encounters its mystical secrets. "Sophisticated and spiritual, with a witty and wry delivery that impels the reader from temple to temple. Utterly entertaining, this mystical adventure, punctuated by episodes of hilarity only possible when traveling far, far from home, challenges our notions of who and what we are." - Mary J. Donohue Ph.D.Following the Nile from Giza to Aswan and back again, Callan discovers the oldest temples and pyramids are encoded with sacred geometry, sited on telluric hot spots, and fashioned of stone that interacts with human tissue and brain chemistry. These quantum structures embody the spiritual technology of a lost golden age, and they are still operational.The ancient Egyptians believed that everything-from a star to a storm, from a person to a pyramid-possessed a consciousness. If a human being could achieve a compatible vibratory signature, a sympathetic resonance, then any form of consciousness could be known and intimately related to. Waking the Temples is an expedition into this unusual idea, into the beating heart of Egypt. Miraculous yet grounded, at turns sacred and humorous, this mystical memoir will lighten your heart and open the way.

Don Stadtner writes an authoritative, insightful and yet imminently readable history of the sacred sites across Sri Lanka, not only Buddhist, but Hindu, Christian and Islamic too.

In the 1970s many thousands of young persons traveled from Europe to Asia on the Hippie Trail in search of adventure, spiritual enlightenment, and personal discovery. Their sprawling, free-wheeling escapades changed their lives and the places they visited. While the overland route between Amsterdam and Kathmandu no longer exists, its stopovers in India--Pushkar, Rishikesh, Hampi, Goa, and the Pushkar Valley--continue to attract counterculture travelers from throughout the world. And just as the visitors have absorbed experiences and material culture, even spiritual wisdom, from their Indian hosts, so, too, have local residents learned a thing or two from their hippie guests. During the past half century, an intense cultural intermingling has taken place in these distant locales, where lifeways, architectures, and philosophies are exchanged as freely as costumes, music, and hairstyles. This photographic book, the first of its kind, vividly captures the beguiling love affair between East and West in its portrayal of modern-day India and the free-spirited people who travel or reside there--Westerners and Indians, alike. Acclaimed essayist and travel writer Pico Iyer wrote the book foreword entitled "The Long Strange Trip."

Camino Inglés: This ancient route was popular with pilgrims arriving by sea from England, Ireland and Northern Europe in the medieval period. It all but faded from memory but is quietly coming back to life and now ready to welcome pilgrims seeking a more solitary way along the rugged rías of Northern Galicia. It was previously combined with the route to Finisterre which was described as the road less travelled but that acclaim has now passed to the English way (or Celtic way) that starts in Ferrol or A Coruña and now fully merits its own edition. Few pilgrims walking the Camino Inglés commence in A Coruña which, at less than 100 km, does not entitle the pilgrim to a compostela unless they have walked an extra 25 km in their own country or combine it with the route from Ferrol. This provides an opportunity to visit the only site in Galicia directly linked with the life of Jesus - his first miracle in Cana of Galilee. By combining two distinct starting points we also come to understand the variety of pathways that the caminos de Santiago offer us, inviting further exploration. This guidebook also seeks to find a balance between the outer and inner journey, between the practical and spiritual, which is why it is subtitled A Practical & Mystical Manual - that we might find a place to eat and sleep at the end of a hard day's walk but also, and crucially, that we might find the courage to dive into the mystery of our own soul awakening.

In this tome, Jean and John Dillon open their old travel diaries to take us fondly back to the days of pre-millennium travel, when getting there was achieved with the use of maps and signposts, as opposed to pings and notifications, and being there was recorded in a journal. Whether for leisure or scholarly pursuit, Jean and John bring us to North America, Mexico, Europe, Hawaii, Israel - and most fondly of all, perhaps - to Greece. The diaries are frank, witty, and always entertaining. They represent the first sortie into travel writing for the authors.

Re-issued with a new introduction and extra chapters, A Load of Bull is the hilarious true story of an Englishman sent to Madrid to help launch Spanish Vogue.In the late eighties Tim Parfitt blagged his way into a job at Condé Nast in London and from there into a six week stint in Madrid to help launch Spanish Vogue. Six weeks turned into nine years, and helping out turned into running the company. Along the way, Tim Parfitt discovered the real 'real' Spain. He never saw a Costa and he certainly never bought an olive grove. Instead, he discovered a booming city in hedonistic reaction to years of fascism, where sleep was something you only did at work and where five hour lunches invariably involved a course of bull's testicles.Tim Parfitt's rise from unwanted guest to paparazzi-pursued mover in Spain's glamorous social scene is a hilarious comedy of errors. Frothing with a language designed to make foreigners dribble, hospitalised by tapa-induced flatulence and constantly frustrated by the unapproachable beauty of the women parading through the Vogue offices, he nevertheless falls in love with a city, a country and its people - despite the fact he hasn't a clue what they're on about.'A hugely entertaining memoir ... frequently laugh-out-loud funny' (The Daily Express)'Parfitt is no ordinary Englishman. His light touch and neat line in self-deprecating humour perfectly suits this entertaining urban spin on the old tale of Brits having fun under the Spanish sun' (The Sunday Times)'A love letter to Madrid ... brilliantly captures a truly eccentric and hedonistic place' (The Daily Mirror)'Often hilarious ... a side-splittingly funny travel memoir' (BBC Online)'Magnificent ... brilliant and moving, hilarious and truthful' (La Vanguardia)'Don't miss it ... Madrid through the eyes of an Englishman.' (Vogue España)
