Sinossi

The idea behind ​​this book is to provide travel enthusiasts like me, a tool that allows them to live fully the travel experience. I think in fact that a trip should involve all the 5 senses, and what better place than behind a table in a little, hidden restaurant or facing a market counter, to use them all at the same time!

Too often it happens to visit near or far places, without knowing exactly what are the local specialties, or even convince oneself that a country does not have a typical cuisine... The purpose of this guide is to complement and enhance your travel, with a gastronomic experience. With over 6000+ entries organized alphabetically, covering the cuisine of the North American states and Canada, Central, South American and Caribbean countries, it is designed for an easy and immediate reference, before and during the journey. It aims to give you tips, support, and encourage you to choose and try new dishes, but will also help you to decipher often incomprehensible menus. My book, the result of years of culinary-wandering, aims to stimulate your curiosity, seeking to give you an intuitive idea about local food, unknown ingredients (sometimes peculiar), preparations, or dishes that seem to some bizarre or weird because unusual.

Being the result of direct experience and hours of talking with professional and local chefs, the goal is not to be complete but to be a useful tool. I'm fully aware that, having to generalize the kitchen by country and considering the contamination that can emerge from regions, neighboring countries, and cultures, some items may be incomplete, partly incorrect, or even missing.

    The idea of place runs like a river through the life and works of the poet and playwright W.B. Yeats. This book focuses on his time in Dublin, London, Sligo and elsewhere in the west of Ireland, embracing the homes, landscapes and people that impacted his life and stimulated his vast body of work.
    Meet the poet's father, the struggling artist John Butler Yeats; his mother Susan, the well-to-do Sligo girl who had no choice but to follow her husband's path; his five siblings: Lily and Lolly, guiding lights in the Irish Arts and Crafts movement; Jack, the renowned painter; and Bobbie and Jane Grace, who died in infancy. Meet William Morris, John O'Leary, Katharine Tynan, George Moore, Oscar Wilde, Lady Gregory, Douglas Hyde, George Hyde-Lees, and, of course, Maud Gonne, as well as countless others who helped weave the cloth of Yeats's poetic gift.

    Every year, hundreds of thousands of young people pack their bags to study or volunteer abroad. Well-intentioned and curious Westerners—brought up to believe that international travel broadens our horizons—travel to low-income countries to learn about people and cultures different from their own. While travel abroad can provide much-needed perspective, it can also be deeply unsettling, confusing, and discomforting. Travelers can find themselves unsure about how to think or speak about the differences in race or culture they find, even though these differences might have fueled their desire to travel in the first place.In Beyond Guilt Trips: Mindful Travel in an Unequal World, storyteller Anu Taranath begins at home, unpacking our baggage about who we are, where we come from, and how much we have. She takes us on a journey through engaging personal travel stories and thought-provoking questions, providing us with tools to grapple with our discomfort and navigate differences with accountability and connection. Yes, travel! But be mindful. Be present.
