Most business travelers collect airline miles.
Tony Argula collected stories.
Over the course of a career spent crisscrossing North America and beyond, Tony discovered that while most people occasionally encounter travel mishaps, he seemed uniquely gifted at attracting them.
Delayed flights.
Cancelled flights.
Snowstorms.
Emergency landings.
Questionable hotels.
Suspicious taxi rides.
Middle seats.
Lost luggage.
And enough bizarre encounters to make even seasoned travelers question reality.
From being stranded in Montreal with a New Jersey coworker who looked and sounded suspiciously like Joe Pesci, to becoming an honorary member of a St. Patrick's Day bachelorette party, to surviving a hotel in India that may or may not have housed king cobras, these stories prove one simple truth:
Poor decisions and bad luck have an uncanny ability to find each other.
Filled with self-deprecating humor, unforgettable characters, and the kind of adventures that are far funnier in hindsight than they were at the time, The Misadventures of a Traveling Moron is a laugh-out-loud memoir for anyone who has ever:
- Been stranded in an airport.
- Lost faith in airline schedules.
- Argued with a GPS.
- Wondered if their hotel room qualified as a crime scene.
- Been convinced, just for a moment, that they were cursed.
Because sometimes the best stories come from the trips that go completely off the rails.
And sometimes...
You just have to admit:
I must be a moron.
