Produktbeschreibung
A young man searches the pre-internet world for meaning while traveling on an extreme budget in this real-life, coming-of-age story.

The Wayward Traveler follows the adventures of Louis, an American who, in 1985, is determined to travel the world. The story takes place in forty countries and spans ten years: from the deck of a felucca on the Nile to the scorched dunes of India's Thar Desert to the powerful Beni River in the Amazon Basin.

Louis is broke most of the time and spends considerable effort trying to get by. Along the way, he meets other travelers, learns how to get by on the road, and eventually develops a list of Rules for Survival that help him get by. The Rules might seem trivial to someone reading in the safety of their home, but to Louis, they are his compass. Embrace the Unknown... Choose Your Battles... Don't Chase the Fire... each one has a story behind it-or in this case a Chapter.

These travels took place before the internet and cell phones shrunk the world to pocket format. Guidebooks were still non-existent for many of the places, and there were still a few dark spots left on the world's maps. Whether you're a traveler or an armchair traveler, this book will make you feel the road.

Autorenporträt
Robert Louis DeMayo took up writing at the age of twenty when he left his job as a biomedical engineer to explore the world. Over the coming years he traveled to every corner of the globe, experiencing approximately one hundred countries. He is a member of The Explorers Club and The Archaeological Institute of America. During his travels he worked extensively for the travel section of The Telegraph, out of Hudson, NH. For three years he worked as marketing director for Eos, a company that served as a travel office for six non-profit organizations and offered dives to the Titanic and the Bismarck, Antarctic voyages, African safaris and archaeological tours throughout the world. Following this, Robert worked for three years as a tour guide in Alaska during the summers and as a jeep guide in Sedona, Arizona, during the winter. He was general manager at A Day in the West, a Jeep tour company in Sedona before he decided to write full time. He is the author of The Making of Theodore Roosevelt, a fictionalized account of Roosevelt¿s acquaintance with wilderness living, The Light Behind Blue Circles, a mystery thriller set in Africa, The Cave Where the Water Always Drips, an adventure tale set in modern and colonial times of the Southwest, and Random Thoughts from the Road, a collection of poetry and prose. His most recent novel, The Wayward Traveler, won a Pinnacle Book Achievement Award. This memoir-based story follows, Louis, a young adventurer, who runs out of money while abroad and creates a list of Rules for Survival to get by. Currently he resides in Hollis, N.H. and Sedona, AZ, with his wife Diana and three daughters: Tavish Lee, Saydrin Scout, and Martika Louise.
