Ways to go East - Ivan Milles
- Kinnekulle to Kathmandu
As airline miles become a problematic part of modern travel, Ways to go East shows another route through to wherever you are going, with an appreciation for the places along the way. A solo traveller's romance of trying to reach the Himalayas on trains, buses and horse carts. A diary of confidence, curiosity, pride and self-reliance, but also exhaustion and loneliness.
Join this overland journey along the old Hippie Trail from Sweden to Nepal, past Dracula’s castle, train technicians with torches, the midpoint of the Roman empire, ancient ruins and temples, through extravagant military ceremonies and onto misty trains and nightmare Himalayan buses, up through jungles to the cold silence of the Annapurna massif.
Did you think that the world is already discovered, and that shuttle coaches from the airport killed the mystery? Then know that the below the flight path corridors, the poetic and legendary regions are still there for you to explore: Moravia and Carpathia, Tracia and Anatolia, Persia and Himalaya.
