Ah, at last! I'm finished with reading children's books and I'm back to reading whatever I wish. So for my first trip back into reading what I want I picked this book from my enormous TBR. Osborne is fed up with what he terms Whatever travel, travel that takes you to places that are as indistinguishable as bottled water. He decides to try Papua New Guinea. It's an excellent choice for someone jaded to travel. If you are seeking being shot at with arrows, swimming with crocodiles, visiting with indigenous people wearing nothing but a shell, then this book might be a good destination for you.
