On the Hippie Trail: Istanbul to Kathmandu and the Making of a Travel Writer by Rick Steves

3.0

adventurous funny hopeful inspiring reflective fast-paced

---

 Fast paced vivid story telling that will make what little travelling you may have done feel like nothing! -1 star star because I don't really know how I feel about the whole taking a photo of someone without their permission then publishing it. Most of them were asked but the ones that weren't rubbed me the wrong way and felt a little exploitive but maybe I'm just reading too much into it?
-1 star because while I liked the authenticity of not changing his 23 year old thoughts and comments to make himself more likeable, it made it apparent that I would not have liked egocentric 23 year old rick steves 😂
