Around the World in 80 Days: Companion to the PBS Series by Michael Palin

5.0

Michael Palin has always been my favorite Python, but I haven't had much time to get into his travel stuff yet. Finding this on audiobook narrated by him was a real treat.

Not only was it a fun and funny way to experience traveling around the world, but it was kind of like going back in time to 1988. That's probably the first year I have any memories of, so excellent timing for me. Honestly, I doubt if much would change in terms of transport available if they tried this journey today.

Travel writing is often my escapism during the school year, and this was a perfect example of that.
