Traveller: Observations from an American in Exile Audiobook (Free)

‘How may i have got known then without maps obtained and my luggage not yet loaded that my trip had already begun? …The tools of a traveler are compass and map. They calculate ranges covered and places searched for but cannot measure the effects of experiences on the human heart,’ writes Michael Katakis in his introduction.

Traveller can be a collection of characters and journal entries that bring the immediacy of experience as well as perceptive reflections of the author’s very own past. The about Traveller: Observations from an American in Exile entries within this volume are not travel guides. They are even more personal, like characters from the most desirable type of friend. The friend carries the listener with him as he meanders through the medina in Fez or in to the hills of Gallipoli. His voice is such that listeners can almost smell the herbal products and dusty garden soil of Crete, and constantly they are presented towards the people he fits on the way.

For anyone interested in the globe, and introduced having a foreword created and browse by Michael Palin, Traveller will delight, infuriate and, probably most of all, inspire thought about the complex world around them.
