sigo's review against another edition
4.0
This book was given to me by an English friend of mine. It was really good and also really ridiculous. The book is a kind of companion/behind the scenes look at the making of the Sky show An Idiot Abroad, and I would definitely recommend watching the show as well as reading the book. The title really says it all, Karl Pilkington, who is less of an idiot and more of just naive and simple minded, is sent abroad to film a TV show and travels to all of the 7 wonders of the world. Really fun read, especially if you're travelling.

So funny, I feel like I can relate a lot to Karl Pilkington and I value his bluntless about travelling.

If you've seen the show it's pretty pointless and honestly I think this is one of the rare cases where the show is better than the book; I suppose because the book came second. I like to have a bit of a laugh at Karl's comments but the whole thing eventually became tiring and I just wanted it to be over. I won't be reading the second book even though I own it. Charity shop it is! I'll just watch the show whenever I fancy this kind of thing again. Not for me. I hope others enjoy it more than I did.
