Book 2 of the hilarious book series that those in the know will want to read in the waiting area of a job interview so they laugh so freaking hard that it will impress the CEO to such an extent that he offers them a corner office and double the vacation time given to all the other employees.
Life was not meant to be easy, Simon Yeats' father used to tell him. Well, it sure as hell was not meant to be this insane and amusing. Australian ex-pat Yeats, as all he has ever been called since High School, shares his stories of travel misadventures and dubious personal introspection with comedic insights into the unusual and uproarious elements of living his life abroad. All while having a sense of Wanderlust as pervasive as the Bubonic Plague in the 1300s.
From what to do when several people converge to rob you after midnight on a deserted Copacabana Beach, to how to save the Sierra Mountain Range from a wildfire outbreak due to a lack of quality toilet paper, to where not to go in Tijuana when trying to locate the origins to stories of the city's mythical adult entertainment, to how to save yourself from drowning when caught in a storm while sailing off the California coast. Simon Yeats has gone into the world and experienced all the out of the ordinary moments for readers to sit back and enjoy the experience without the need to lose a testicle while running with bulls in Pamplona, survive a taxi ride in Buenos Aires, or damage their liver at Oktoberfest.Also from
