Summary
Five humorous and ironic chronicles of journeys from a time in which travelers didn't carry a digital camera with storage for thousands of photos, nor a mobile telephone with infinite functions capable of resolving any unexpected problems encountered along the way. The reader will be immersed in an initiatory journey-passages of pure adventure-and will look back on an unprecedented historical event that occurred at the same time as one of these journeys. Each of these episodes occurred as the 20th century was being left behind, when life began to radically change due to the extreme use of technology that changed the way we travel. As we come to that point, we will look at a map rather than a GPS, and we'll search for a cabin to call home. I dare you to relive all those sensations through these stories. After all, "traveling is the best investment of money," right?
