This true story tells the tales about the capacity of the human will. Nathaniel Allenby's (Fight to Survive, Cirque Quirk) The Cycle of Kindness regales readers with larger-than-life factual accounts of sneaking into castles, learning to dumpster dive, being robbed in London, protesting at the Camp for Climate Action, and pedaling across Germany and the Pyrenees mountains through the freezing cold. Using journal entries from the expedition to recount the more intimate details, he shares how he did the seemingly impossible.
The Cycle of Kindness is a true story that recounts one man's unbelievable journey to rediscover his faith in humanity. In 2006, at age twenty-two, Nathaniel's cathartic experience began when his closest friend, Dan, offered him a one-way ticket to Europe and a bicycle upon arrival. Nathaniel's autobiography captures the next ten months of their lives, pedaling 7,500 miles, sharing the difficulties and joy of straying from consumer culture and living off the grid. This candid portrayal, including journal entries from his voyage, regales readers with a beautiful story of friendship, altruism, and the indomitable human spirit. A cross between Into the Wild and Eat, Pray, Love, you'll see what started out as a journey of self-discovery turn into one of revelation that we live in a great big world full of generous people. This is their story as much as it is his.
This book is the beginning of a six-year journey, in which he pedaled 28,000 miles on an expedition across ten countries and thirty states, but The Cycle of Kindness will tell you how it all started. Truthfully told, readers will be bewildered that someone could survive through it all, between not knowing where their next meal would come from or being able to speak the local language. With elements such as overcoming adversity, spiritual experiences, personal growth, and love, you'll feel inspired to begin your own phenomenal life story.
