Female Nomad and Friends
Author: Rita Golden Gelman
Publisher: Crown
ISBN: 0307588017
Category : Travel
Languages : en
Pages : 354
Book Description
In 1987, Rita, newly divorced, set out to live her dream. She sold all her possessions and became a nomad. She wrote a book about her ongoing journey and, in 2001, insisted on putting her personal e-mail address in the last chapter—against all advice. It turned out to be a fortuitous decision. She has met thousands of readers, stayed in their homes, and sat around kitchen tables sharing stories and food and laughter. In this essay collection, Gelman includes her own further adventures, as well as those of writers and readers telling tales of the shared humanity they experienced in their travels. The stories are funny and sad, poignant and tender, familiar and bizarre. They will make you laugh and cry and maybe even send you off on your own adventure. Also included are fabulous international recipes such as vegetarian dolmades (stuffed grape leaves), chiles en nogada (stuffed poblano chiles topped with a white cream sauce with walnuts and a sprinkle of pomegranate seeds), and ho mok (an extraordinary fish-coconut custard from Thailand). Happy reading—and bon appétit, selamat makan, buen provecho!

A Nomad Repaints the Globe
Author: PREMJI
Publisher: Partridge Publishing
ISBN: 1482813378
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 317
Book Description
Why are we here? Are we here just to earn our bread and butter, feed our family and egos, or is there a larger purpose? If being born human is the highest gift, then being humane is the ultimate purpose of life. This is the subtle message in his stories. It is apparent that his consciousness doesn't allow him to rest; he is outraged by human apathy, aware of immense possibilities of vitality invigorating our lives though love, compassion, humour, and righteous living.

Pages : 183
Book Description
Ray likes to think of himself as a global nomad, belonging everywhere in general and nowhere in particular. Now in his thirties, he jumps at the opportunity to take a six-month sabbatical offered by his company. But as he walks to the airport gate, Ray feels a bit of trepidation; he'll be giving up his normal life--friends, family, sports, hobbies, and his usual daily life-- while he backpacks for the coming half-year. From Thailand to Cambodia and Vietnam, Ray explores cultures, sees breathtaking sights, and savours the cuisine of his many stops. He makes new friends and takes time to examine his life as a single man. It's a discovery of places and parts that Ray has forgotten existed while he toiled away in the corporate rat race. Although he begins his trip without any ambition of finding himself or the like; he is increasingly intrigued by the question of what he wants from the rest of his life. Will he find love and a lifestyle that makes him happy?

Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 713
Book Description
This is a personal story of a life lived in many places, from a childhood in Newfoundland to the bustling and increasingly modern metropolis of Beijing, China. It includes stops in London and Paris and Jakarta and Prague, and many years in Ottawa, where I was lucky to serve in a number of senior positions, including Deputy Secretary to the Cabinet during the intense period leading up to the Quebec referendum on sovereignty in 1995. It is not a diary, nor a complete history of the events through which I have lived. It is simply a collection of anecdotes and events as I remember them.
