The books various sections mirror the phases of a trip, including: Dreaming and planning the journey: All life-affecting journeys-and the unexpected wonders they promise-be real the moment you decide they will happen. Daily topics include reinventing bucket lists and saving money before the journey, improvising itineraries and navigating technology on the road, and keeping the spirit of the journey alive when you get home. Throughout the year, Rolf Potts embraces the ragged-edged, harder-to-quantify aspects of travel that inevitably change travelers lives for the better, in unexpected ways. Each day of the year features a one-page meditation on a certain aspect of the journey, anchored by words of wisdom from a variety of thinkers-from Stoic philosopher Seneca the Younger and poet Maya Angelou, to Trappist monk Thomas Merton and Grover from Sesame Street.
