Summary

Perhaps you remember a time in your youth when you set off to see the world with only a pack on your back and limited funds in your pocket? 
Well that’s what we did, but we did it when we were in our mid-sixties! With only a backpack and little planning, we set off and explored Central America and Southeast Asia for four months at a time, and did it on a shoe-string budget: In Central America, we spent less than $40 per day per person for food, accommodation and travel; and in Southeast Asia, less than $30 per day. 
In this book, we show you how we did it: where we went, where we stayed, how we travelled and, most importantly, how little we paid. We also share stories about the interesting people we met; give you tips on how to save dollars; and tell you about the fascinating sights we discovered on “roads less traveled” as we ventured through Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Panama for four months in 2011, and through Bali, Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia and Thailand for four months in 2013. 
The paperback version of this book also contains forty-four beautiful photos to inspire and motivate you; three summaries of where we stayed, their amenities and how much we paid; seven color maps of the countries we visited, as well as an index of cities and towns for easy referencing
Available since: 05/20/2017.

    An illuminating and witty dialogue with one of the greatest intellectual figures of the twentieth century. Ramin Jahanbegloo's interview with Isaiah Berlin grew into a series of five conversations which offer an intimate view of Berlin and his ideas. They include discussions on pluralism and liberty as well as the thinkers and writers who influenced Berlin. This revised edition provided an excellent introduction to Berlin's thought. Ramin Jahanbegloo is an Iranian philosopher, who has taught in Europe and North America. In 2006 he was imprisoned for several months in Iran. He is currently teaching Political Philosophy at Toronto University. 'Though like Our Lord and Socrates he does not publish much, he thinks and says a great deal and has had an enormous influence on our times'. Maurice Bowra 'Berlin never talks down to the interviewer. Conversations here means the minds of the interviewed and interviewer meet on equal terms in language that is transparently clear, informed, witty and entertaining'. Stephen Spender 'He is wise without seeming pompous, witty without seeming trivial, affectionate without seeming sentimental'. Michael Ignatieff 'Isaiah Berlin... has for fifty years in this talkative and quarrelsome city (Oxford) been something special, admired by all and disliked by no-one... a benevolent super-don'.
