h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Last night I finished reading this book called 'Worldwalk', by Steven M Newman. He's a journalist who, back in the 80s, walked around the world in about four years of so (flying or taking a boat across water, of course). He walked from Ohio to New England, flew to Britain, walked around Ireland, Scotland and England, then France and Spain. Then he walked North Africa, Italy, Turkey, India, Singapore, Australia and then across America back to Ohio. He was nearly murdered a couple times. He never spent any money on accomadations, just slept outside, or stayed with people he met. He never once mentioned anything about having a towel with him, though.

Wow. I'll look out for that one.
