The Reluctant Tourist

Rib-tickling blogs of a 47-day trip around the world - one blog for each day. With 90 photographs and amusing, personal tales of a long journey starting from Australia, then on to Gent in Belgium, then England, Scotland, England again, across the Atlantic on the Queen Mary 2. Up to Canada from New York, then back to Washington DC, New Jersey and back to Australia.

The author accompanied his wife on her study tour of these countries as part of her work. His ‘reluctance’ to accompany her is decidedly tongue-in-cheek and hilarious in parts and very amusing in others.

Besides the book being informative in relation to each of the countries he visited, it is also a great read, with a belly laugh on just about every page.
