by Luke Maguire Armstrong (Author) The world is wide and open. Many people nowadays carry their career in their computer and live out on the road. After I ditched my return ticket in Chile and took out a student loan to finance hitchhiking from South America to Alaska, people said, "You're crazy!" I replied, "So was Columbus!" They insisted, "This is so financially unsound!" I cried, "So were The Pyramids!"The traveling world is one of many beautiful, amusing, and terrifying moments. Sometimes, it's raccoon attacks. Other times, it's bandits on a train who want your iPod. Often, it is giving a smile that says, "Sorry, I'm a gringo, and everything confuses me." Here are forty tales from the winding path of my nomadic travels. Author Biography The author of this work is sick and tired of being asked to write a bio of himself in the third person. He will not stand for it anymore and is going rogue. If you want to know about him, give him a call why don't you! (701-204-8794).
