North To South: A Man, a Bear and a Bicycle - Inspirational Adventure Story for Outdoor Enthusiasts & Nature Lovers - Perfect for Camping Trips & Road Travel Reading

First thought, if this book was made into a movie, I’d definitely watch it.It is a real page turner. Honestly my original plan was to finish it in a few days, but at chapter 18 I realized I could not stop reading. My eager curiosity forced me to finish this book in one go (without opening my browser even once) because every chapter was practically a fascinating new world. From my perspective, every component a TRUE adventure should have is in this book: scenic views, fascinating exotic cultures, inspiring self-realization, memorable friendship, life-threatening dangers posed by both nature and human, and most importantly, the good, bad, weird, interesting and fun characters the author met on the road. As someone who has loved fantasy and fictions since childhood but secretly suspects that adventures no longer exist in modern days, this book brought a quite pleasant surprise.I hesitate about calling this book inspiring, simply because the word seems to appear in every review for every book, but this one did make me think for a while after I was done. When I read the stories of an author who wasn’t “well-prepared” or “fully trained” yet still embarked on an ambitious journey, and stuck to the end despite all the difficulties and solitude to gain the most amazing life experiences, I couldn't help but wonder what I have missed these years by letting my fear take charge...So, whether you have a travelling dream and are looking for inspiration, or simply wants to read a classic adventure story, North to South is worth your time.
