  This book has two titles: 
  Digital Nomad - The digital nomad lifestyle has gained popularity in recent years due to advancements in technology and a shift in work culture towards remote employment. Digital nomads typically rely on laptops, smartphones, and internet connectivity to perform their work from anywhere with a reliable internet connection. This lifestyle enables individuals to break free from the traditional office setting, allowing them to choose their own hours, travel to new destinations, and immerse themselves in different cultures. 
  One of the key aspects of the digital nomad lifestyle is flexibility. Since most digital nomads work as freelancers, consultants, or remote employees, they have the freedom to design their own work schedule. This flexibility allows them to prioritize experiences over material possessions, spending their time and resources on travel, exploration, and personal growth. 
  RV - In this guide, we embark on a journey beyond the confines of traditional living. Through these pages, you'll discover the allure of life on the road, where every mile holds the promise of adventure and every destination becomes a new chapter in your story. Whether you're a seasoned traveler or a curious wanderer, this book is your companion, offering insights into choosing the right RV, mastering the art of campground etiquette, and embracing the freedom of a life untethered. 
  But the RV lifestyle is more than just a mode of travel—it's a community, a culture, and a way of life. You'll meet fellow nomads who share their experiences, from breathtaking vistas to unexpected challenges, weaving a tapestry of camaraderie that transcends borders and backgrounds. From solo explorers to families on the go, everyone finds their place in the vibrant tapestry of RV living.

  Smelling the Breezes - A Journey...

  Smelling the Breezes is an inspiring family adventure, a three-hundred-mile walk down the spine of the Lebanon with four children, two donkeys and Elias, the family's gardener, nursemaid and friend. The journey took them over towering passes, through immense gorges and into the lives of mountain villages and highland herdsmen. The presence of four small but redoubtable blonde children proved a passport at every door, whatever the politics, religion or ethnicity of the household. Smelling the Breezes is a magnificent portrait of Lebanon in all its rich complexity and easy charm: broken castles, hashish smugglers, clan feuds, festivals, forgotten temples, secretive headquarters and hospitable sheikhs.

  Classical Japan - Art Power and...

  Rolf Hedger

  The classical era of Japan was defined by a rich interplay of art, power, and evolving traditions, spanning the Nara, Heian, and Kamakura periods. The Nara Period saw the establishment of Japan’s first permanent capital, heavily influenced by Chinese culture, with Buddhism gaining prominence and shaping religious and artistic developments.  
  The Heian Period marked the height of imperial court culture, where poetry, literature, and refined aesthetics flourished under the rule of aristocratic families like the Fujiwara. It was also during this time that the kana writing system emerged, giving rise to literary masterpieces such as The Tale of Genji. As courtly elegance gave way to the rise of the samurai, the Kamakura Shogunate ushered in a new era of warrior rule, led by the Minamoto clan.  
  The establishment of a military government transformed Japan’s political landscape, laying the groundwork for feudal society while facing external threats like the Mongol invasions. These three periods together shaped Japan’s cultural and political identity, leaving an enduring legacy that continues to influence the nation today.

  How to Travel - An Ancient Guide...

  A transporting anthology of ancient Greek and Roman travel writings that capture the thrill of exploration and discovery—from Europe to the Holy Land and Egypt to IndiaAt long last, a travel guide to the ancient world for the modern tourist—written by the ancients themselves. How to Travel gathers classic texts from Greek and Roman writers to explore what today’s readers can learn from ancient encounters with unfamiliar peoples, places, and customs.The Greek historian Herodotus (ca. 484–425 BCE) is one of the most famous travelers of antiquity. His Histories, which chronicle his and others’ encounters with foreign peoples and places, have fascinated readers for millennia, and have much to teach about the secrets of good travel. In How to Travel, Herodotus and Tacitus take us on tours of Central Asia, Egypt, and Germania, while pilgrims like Pausanias and the Christian nun Egeria guide us through Greece and the Holy Land. Readers are whisked away to India to experience the ways of forest-dwelling sages and to the far reaches of Africa. And as if Earth weren’t enough, the satirist Lucian takes us to the Moon. But this whirlwind tour of antiquity is more than a pleasure cruise. Seneca cautions travelers that, go as far as we may, we can never escape ourselves. Gratitude, Egeria says, is the traveler’s proper response for the privilege. And Homer reminds us that, ultimately, there’s no place like home.Featuring vivid new translations, an inviting introduction, and the original Greek and Latin texts on facing pages, How to Travel captures the thrill of exploration and discovery—and how new experiences, fresh vistas, and foreign cultures can change the traveler.

  A Quiet Evening - The Travels of...

  Norman Lewis

  Collected here, from a period of nearly five decades, are thirty-six of Norman Lewis's best articles. In each, his writing crackles with poker-faced wit and stylistic brilliance. As a witness to his times – the good, the bad and the absurd – he was unmatched, and his instinct for important events, and moments, was infallible. His range here includes Ibizan fishermen, an interview with Castro's executioner, the genocide of the South American indigenous tribes, a paean to Seville and his meeting with a tragic Ernest Hemingway. Lewis told Ian Fleming, who had commissioned him, that the meeting was 'a shattering experience of the kind likely to sabotage ambition'. Fortunately it didn't, and the articles assembled between these covers are compulsive, hilarious, tender and beautifully written, at times deeply upsetting and always unforgettable.
