Never Hitchhike on the Road Less Travelled (bad, Bad, Bad Idea!)

- A tourist travels for pleasure; a traveller takes pleasure in the travel itself. - A tourist shops; a traveller hikes. - A tourist takes a trip; a traveller sets off on a grand journey and okay, trips a lot. - A tourist is a gawker; a traveller, a walker. - A tourist is on vacation; a traveller, on a personal pigrimage. - A tourist is happy to get home; a traveller is happy to get home alive. - A tourist is often a guest; a traveller is always on a quest. It's a hilarious new romp as Thomas leads you down his own improbable and wacky paths-both primrose and perilous. This book, as William Thomas tells it, is for travellers, not for tourists. It is full of astonishing advice and brilliant suggestions, as well as wonderful stories from one of the world's real travellers.
