    Part 1 - France, Spain, Ceuta (North Africa), Morocco, Western Sahara, Mauritania, Mali, Niger, Chad, Central African Republic A Journey through the Unknown: Conquering the Impossible "Kypros Africa Adventure" is an enthralling memoir written by Kypros, an intrepid photographer and explorer who embarks on a perilous adventure across Africa in 1999. Armed with a former military Land Rover, Kypros sets off on an audacious journey from the Atlantic Ocean on Africa's west coast to the Indian Ocean on the east coast, traversing treacherous jungles and facing unimaginable dangers. At the outset, Kypros acknowledges the daunting nature of his endeavor, aware that he has the option to abandon his vehicle and take to the skies if circumstances become insurmountable. However, fueled by his adventurous spirit and determination, he chooses to forge ahead, taking small steps and pushing himself to the limits. Throughout the book, Kypros describes the hostile and unforgiving landscapes he encounters, where danger lurks at every turn. The author's raw and uncensored account reveals the harsh realities he faces, with over 600 pages filled with vivid descriptions and explicit language. Although he acknowledges the mistakes and shortcomings in his journey and writing, Kypros emphasizes that his actions and decisions were often made without prior experience or knowledge. As Kypros navigates his way through the violence-ridden jungles, he witnesses horrifying incidents, such as people being burnt alive inside their vehicles.Despite the overwhelming odds and the countless challenges he encounters, Kypros pushes forward, displaying incredible resilience and fortitude. The expedition finally concludes at Table Mountain in Cape Town, South Africa, in 2001. Kypros reflects on the incredible and life-threatening nature of his adventure, having covered an astounding distance of 38,500 kilometers alone through some of the most dangerous places on Earth. His journey serves as a testament to the human spirit's capacity for endurance and exploration. "A Journey through the Unknown: Conquering the Impossible" is not only an adrenaline-fueled account of a remarkable expedition but also a personal reflection on the author's triumphs and shortcomings. It invites readers to join Kypros on his wild and unforgettable journey, offering a glimpse into the untamed and unexplored corners of Africa. From the Chad section ... "Everyone tells me the animals are somewhere else. There are no animals, they have all been eaten" "No, I see lots by the water. The chimpanzees are in groups. They attack small people and try to fu*k the woman when they are alone". "Do they ever succeed? You mean they want sex with people?" "Yes, sometimes they find woman. If she fights they bite her neck and kill her". Sudan - "They murder someone to get married?"."No, they just cut off the penis". Central African Republic - "If you do get attacked when you leave here, look at the ground at all time and do not make eye contact. Let them take whatever they want and do not say or do anything. They may let you live, but never look at them". ... At dusk, the chief presented me with a large wooden bowl filled with a green paste."This is too much for me to eat," I said. "Eat whatever you like and leave the rest," the chief replied. As I finished picking through the green paste, I noticed everyone staring at me. Eventually, I realized they were waiting for me to hand them the bowl. I had presumed it was an extra generous serving, but the food had been intended for the entire village. I had eaten half of it, and the chief then took my plate and ate my leftovers. The others shared the remainder when he was finished. It dawned on me that I had unwittingly eaten the entire food supply for everyone in the village.

    Tales of Mr Explorer* This a travel book with a difference.'Tales of Mr Explorer' captures the adventures of an ordinary family man with a normal office job who has a passion for wilderness, wildlife and travel.Hopefully these tales relate some of the interesting moments experienced during my trips including instances of awe, enlightenment, fear, my stupidity, human kindness, deep sadness as well as huge joy.For example; 'Kissing a 45ton female Gray Whale on the lips - in the wild.' 'Being hunted by a three to four metre Nile Crocodile'. 'Sitting two metres from a Male Silverback Gorilla'.It was written primarily so my grandchildren could enjoy my adventures as well as encouraging them to explore the wider world. I have experienced many similar situations to those shown on the famous David Attenborough TV series. Hopefully my book will inspire people and show that these opportunities are available without huge costs and without dedicating months of time. Mike HelliwellMr Explorer*Why Mr Explorer? My daughter is a primary school teacher and I often go into school to support her teaching. I talk to children, aged between four and six, about animals and the world. My character name is Mr Explorer. The children get very excited when Mr Explorer comes to school. I started this as a 'bit of fun' for both the children and myself. However, talking to the teachers they told me they get a lot of positive opportunities from these sessions. Children, especially the disruptive ones, become engaged with the subject and the teachers use this as a teaching tool for weeks afterwards. I now see this as more than just fun but 'giving something back'. In one particular lesson a year 5 boy put his hand up at the end of the lesson and said "When I grow up I am going to be Mr Explorer".

  • - Journey Into a Lost Japan
    av Lesley Chan Downer
    188,-

    After eight years working in Japan, immersing herself in its language and literature, Lesley Chan Downer set off in the footsteps of Matsuo Basho, Japan's most cherished poet, to explore the country's remote northern provinces. Basho's pilgrimage to find the landscapes that had inspired the great medieval poets gave birth to Japan's most famous travel book, rich in strange imagery and sometimes comic encounters along the road. In this intriguing cross-threading of journeys, perceptions and exquisite haiku, Lesley creates her own funny, loving and honest portrayal of contemporary Japan. As she walks, she finds at one and the same time a drab post-industrial landscape of concrete and cable, but also a land still full of the old enchantments. Nights in thatched highland villages and sake-drenched poetry sessions encourage her to see for herself if any of the legendary hermit-priests still survive in the sacred mountains of the north.

With all the courage and carefreeness typical of youth, two friends climbed aboard an old off-road vehicle and embarked on an adventure. The Port of Genoa, witness to their growing up, quickly disappeared behind them as their destination unfolded: the East.Thus began their on-the-road journey, an extraordinary odyssey through the Balkans and the Anatolian steppes, reaching the mythical lands of Iran, Afghanistan, India, and Thailand. But more important than the destination was the road itself, the path unfolding before them. A road to be traveled with the wind of freedom pushing their journey, a desire to savor life without limits, without borders.---A story that crossed mountains, deserts, and the very heart of the rebellious youth of the '70s.---Because this story wants to be primarily a journey, not a demonstration of technical skill.
