        The Solo Travel Guide

        Just Do It

        by Dee Maldon

        Do you want to travel, but your friends or family don’t? So why wait? Travelling alone is better than never travelling at all. In the Solo Travel Guide: Just do it we give you suggestions on how to plan, how to cope when you are at your destination alone, how to stay safe and even some suggestions on where to go – good destinations for the solo traveller, places with wonderful things to see but where you will not stand out from the crowd. We also offer inspiration – snippets from those women who set off centuries ago without a guide book, a mobile phone and very little advice. Also available in paperback

        52 Greek Islands

        A sentimental guide

        by Gregory Papadoyiannis

        This is a “sentimental” guide for travelers, through 52 of the Greek islands. The term "sentimental" implies something more than a commonplace guide and this is certainly not just a typical guidebook. There is already a plethora of classic guidebooks; the internet is rife with a lot of useful – and even more useless – information. This book has simply been written out of outrageous love for the islands, as an attempt to describe how it feels to actually “live the island” – even just for a week – and to find out what each island is really like, from how it looks to how it can be characterized in terms of its deeper essence; it’s a process similar to getting to know a friend, or perhaps even to falling in love that led to the creation of this delightful crossbreed between a guidebook and a memoir.

        by Giulia Zigotti and Sabrina Ferrero

        “Huanying: welcome to China. Hospitality is a time-honored tradition in China – and guests are the more valued the longer the journey that took them here.” The third installment of our –MANIA series. After Japan and New York, now comes the turn of China.The volume delves into 100 topics, divided in 9 chapters – 9 concept maps to discover both ancient and contemporary China.The volume opens with an exploration of the capital, Beijing, the city of power and heart of the country, in the past as today. It continues exploring the tenets and traditions at the basis of the Empire’s unity, providing the reader with an ideal “tool kit” to approach Chinese culture. It then travels to the provinces, describing the great variety of landscapes of this continent-country. It touches on the language, on local the cuisine, on popular sports and pastimes, to include and give a voice to the people. And concludes its journey with major holidays, as further proof of the importance of traditions.Like its two predecessors, the book finds its main strength in the interplay between text and pictures. Shapes and colors, bird’s eye and in-depth views, comics and informative Post-its make for a truly engaging read. With no set sequence or pre-defined target reader. Those wishing to discover China will find food for thought and imagination; those who have already visited it – on their travels, their study or business trips – will uncover a wealth of new information, data, trends, idiosyncrasies and manias..

        DRINKING MY WAY TO THE ENDS OF THE EARTH (La Ruta del Vino)

        by Lily Huang

        In every part of the world there is that preferred alcoholic beverage without which a meal would not be complete. But what is the origin of each of these regional favorites? Was it a new varietal bred in a vineyard? Or was it found in a long-forgotten bottle in a musty cellar? With author and veteran drinker Lily Huang as their guide, readers will sample alcoholic offerings from around the world, learning the history and stories behind each of these prized libations. From Latin American countries like Argentina, Chile, and Mexico, to the less-travelled Baltic states, Lily will stop at nothing to uncover the origins of specialty alcohols – even if it means travelling to the North Pole!   Along the way Lily tells the story of how the love of a harsh local firewater took root in a war-ravaged nation, why warming medicinal liqueurs are so common in the north, and how cool, refreshing cocktails came to be associated with tourist destinations in the tropics. Her research into the origins of these regional specialties is complemented by keen observations of daily life and local customs. For readers inspired to sample these rare draughts for themselves, essential travel information is provided.    Through flowing prose, scenic photography, and attractive layouts, readers follow the course of Lily’s pilgrimage of the spirits, partaking in each raised glass along the way. Whether the destination is a bustling metropolis, or a lone shack in the middle of the desert, you can be sure Lily Huang will leave no stone unturned in her pursuit of a storied tipple!

        Thailand / Das Insiderbuch für Auswanderer oder Langzeittouristen: Das Buch, das Ihnen Thailand erklärt

        by Glöckl, Andreas

        Thailand. Every year, the country attracts several million visitors. A couple thousand foreigners relocate to Thailand every year or stay for an extended period, like the so/called winter/dwellers. The author himself lived in Thailand for nine years and explains to newcomers how to handle or obtain different things there. This is a practical guide that explains things like how to obtain a driver’s license and which documents to submit, how to get decent cell phone service or find affordable and comfortable lodgings. It is not a travel guide, though it does touch upon the most important tourist destinations. The numerous checklists come handy in aiding the reader in organizing his stay in Thailand, and helps navigate the many pitfalls that lurk in every country in the world. Beside the checklists, the most important addresses, e.g. embassies, are listed, along with helpful overviews. This unique combination makes the book an absolute must/have for every Thailand enthusiast or visitor.

        How Blue is my Valley

        The Real Provence

        by Jean Gill

        Humorous travel memoir about moving from Wales to France; amazon bestseller. Appeals to readers who enjoy armchair travel, who love France and Provence, who read Peter Mayle's books, who dream of changing their lives and moving to a rural haven, especially older readers about to retire from work or those wanting to give up their current work. The true scents of Provence? Lavender, thyme and septic tank. There are hundreds of interesting things you can do in a bath but washing dishes is not one of them, nor what writer Jean Gill had in mind when she swopped her Welsh Valley for a French one. Keen to move out of the elephant's stomach, that stew of grey mists called weather in Wales, she offered her swimming certificate to a bemused Provencale estate agent and bought a house with good stars and its own spring-water. Or rather, as it turns out, a neighbour's spring-water that is the only supply to the kitchen, which, according to the nice men from the Water Board, is emptying its dirty water directly and illegally onto the main road... and there's worse ... But how can you resist a village called Dieulefit, `God created it', the village 'where everyone belongs'. Discover the real Provence in good company ... Watch the book trailer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o_Rrn4CGw5A
