One book she gave me is called 'By Any Means' written by Charlie Boorman. Charlie and his mate Russ travel from Wicklow in Ireland to Wolongong near Sydney Australia. As the title says, they travel by any means they can find including motor bikes (their favourites), trains, buses, old cars, boats even tractor, elephants tuk tuks and lots of other means of transport
Charlie Boorman's book By Any Means
They start off in Wicklow in Ireland
On a tuk tuk in Delhi
On 'Betty' the elephant
Angor Wat in Cambodia
And finally arriving in Sydney
It is a fantastic read. But the best thing is the show is on Foxtel at the moment so I can watch it as well as reading the book.
I'm glad you're enjoying the book. I can't wait to read it.
