Between these pages is the true story of a young man becoming stranded in Europe and the Middle East with only a pocket full of change and no way home. Hoping to live on a kibbutz in Israel, plans were forced to change dramatically when the terrorist attack took place at the 1972 Olympics in Munich, Germany. Out of despair, he was forced to find work before trouble found him. With only a wing, a prayer, and a backpack, his life took a turn for the worse. From the deadly streets of Belfast, Ireland, to finding adventure and romance in the South of France and the mystical island of Corfu, Greece, there was seldom a dull moment. To capture the memories, he kept a daily journal of the adversities he faced and friendships he so desperately needed.
Even after all that happened during this journey, he never gave up his love for travel and continued onward to visit all seven continents, including Antarctica. Some of those stories are captured in two other journals that were later developed into additional books--Cast It All to the Wind and When the Road Calls.
