Lonely Planet Guide to Experimental Travel - Rachael Antony


I expected to dip into this book and read snippets at random, but it was so fascinating that I read it from cover to cover. Not the sort of travel I'd indulge in, as you could as easily end up nowhere and see little, or be serendipitously lucky. But I admire the adventurous souls who contributed to the book. In spite of my bourgeouis taste in travel, some of the experiments could be interesting - eg one where you and partner travel separately to the same city, and try to find each other by intuition. Could be disappointing too if you don't find each other. As I said, I'm bourgeouis in my travel tastes.
