Reisgids Tibet | Bradt Guide |
De perfecte reisgids voor zowel de georganiseerde als de zelfstandige reiziger. Naast een algemene inleiding van het land / streek vol met praktische informatie over hoe je er het beste kunt reizen: slapen, eten, vervoer, excursies ... alles kun je er in vinden. Engelstalig. Zo mogelijk nog diepgaander dan de Lonely Planet.
Exploring ethnic Tibet independently is a challenge. The proverbial ?land of snows?, it possesses some of the wildest and roughest road routes in high Asia, and so trekking, motoring and mountain-biking are all covered in this new edition. Political and cultural issues make Tibet a sensitive destination for Westerners to visit, so Michael Buckley?s advice includes guidelines on cultural etiquette, local customs and travelling with minimum impact on Tibet?s culture and environment.
"The most thumbed of all my books on Tibet. I might have had some trouble with the yak butter tea, but Buckley made everything else about Tibet wonderfully palatable. A must-read."
Michael Palin (who used this book on the road in Tibet when making the tv series 'Himalaya')
"This book will constitute an important reading material for our officials here but also for the those who consult our office on practical informations for the travels in Tibet."
Bureau du Tibet, Paris
"Michael Buckley has a most attractive, easy style, speaking (he seems to be speaking), as one traveller to another. He is never patronising or pompous, he does not pretend to know what he doesn't know, and he does not flaunt his knowledge; among writers of guidebooks, those are rare achievements... This book is undoubtedly the one I would recommend first for reading before a visit to Tibet. For a visit to central or western Tibet it may also be the best single book to take."
Tony Williams, travel co-ordinator, Australia Tibet Council
"The author has written an authoritative guidebook which gives one a genuine feel for the Tibet of today. It is rare to find a guidebook that addresses the situation with so much honesty, and yet this is exactly the sort of explanation a traveller to Tibet needs. I strongly recommend this guide."

Reisverhaal Reisverslag Botswana Time | Will Randall |
Vermakelijk boekje over de belevenissen van een engelse Leraar in een klein dorpje in Botswana.
Will Randall travels with a purpose, as well as an outrageous sense of fortune. In Indian Summer he found himself, by chance, having the extraordinary experience of helping slum schoolchildren put on a play to help save their school. In Botswana he was taken up by a headmaster to teach a class of six year olds at The River of Life school. They are football crazy and one of Will's jobs is to take them to play neighbouring (sometimes as much as 100 miles away) schools. Camping en-route or staying in farms and rural villages, often travelling by foot or dug-out punts, thousands of antelope, elephant, buffalo and zebra follow their progress. The sound of lions, leopards and hyenas become the soundtrack of their dreams. Against all the odds they find themselves preparing for the Grand Final of the season - the titanic clash with arch rivals, Victoria Falls Primary school.Both an endearing personal story and a travel book about a little-known but highly successful country.
