Discovering the Holy Land: A personal exploration of Israel’s history and sacred sites, including a 2013 trip to the Western Wall in Jerusalem and the Church of the Nativity in Bethlehem.

A Grand Tour of the Caucasus: A complex journey through the disputed territories and newly independent nations of Moldova, Ukraine, Georgia, Azerbaijan, and Armenia, revealing a region caught between Europe and Asia, with a fascinating history shaped by oil and conflict.

Venturing to the “Forbidden” Islands: The author’s successful navigation of visa and political hurdles to visit bucket-list destinations like Tunisia, Algeria, and Cuba, often relying on last-minute resourcefulness and local guides.

Exotic Expeditions: From exploring Borneo’s jungle wildlife and facing down a charging “Tax Collector” orangutan to navigating the narrow, picturesque roads of Wales and the treacherous train rides of Italy.

Honoring History: Emotional visits to the Normandy Beaches, where the author’s father landed during WWII, and detailed tours of the Genocide Memorial in Armenia.

The book also vividly recounts the unique challenges and occasional absurdities of high-end travel, from battling chaotic border crossings in the Central Asian “Stans” and enduring unexpected flight complications to hunting for the world’s best draft beers in remote locations.
