Just Go: A Globe-Trotting Guide to Travel Like an Expert, Connect Like a Local, and Live the Adventure of a Lifetime by Drew Binsky

Lots of solid insight here from popular content creator Drew Binsky. This book I think had a lot of solid advice, but honestly could have been either a short travel advice book, or a longer form travel memoir. Together, I'm not sure it worked. The writing style itself was kind of basic as well. Binsky has a lot of passion behind what he does and that is very inspiring to me, so I will be taking a lot of his advice to heart.

Very informative! But maybe lacking a point of view or context. Ends rather abruptly.

What do y'all have against fun??? Firstly, the production of this was fantastic. Secondly, I think anybody navigating friendships and relationships in their 20's will especially relate to this. Might not be for everyone, but I got some laughs and a lot of heart from this story.
