Travel Tales: Idiots Abroad (True Travel Tales, #5) (eBook, ePUB)
Travel Tales: Idiots Abroad is a very funny book. It's a collection of Michael Brein's funniest travel accounts of the nearly 2000 interviews with travelers he has met in his own travels around the world over the last four decades. Although the typical travel stories collected in the books that make up the True Travel Tales series are ordinarily oriented towards safety and security in travel, the very scary accounts of the risks and dangers in your travels and managing to often just barely to escape, the tales are mainly of the fearful and dangerous sorts of things that can and do happen to travelers. Mostly these things will not happen to you. You'll read in the series plenty of examples of the real, raw fear and very unsettling occasions that may pop up now and again in your travels.This book, Travel Tales: Idiots Abroad, however, pauses all of this. Instead of dealing with all sorts of true accounts of close calls and great escapes in connection with all sorts of travel situations including chases, foiled kidnappings, attacks, roadblocks, scary places, trips from hell, borders, and police, hitchhiking, international spying, smuggling, and intrigue, being in the wrong places at the wrong times, terror attacks, bandits, Mexican standoffs, airplane crashes, accidents and mishaps, white slavery, robberies, sexual harassment and assaults and more, rather, the series now pauses to simply make you laugh!Instead of reading about the dangers and mishaps of others, whereby you'll focus on and gain healthier respect of the true dangers and risks of travel and adventure... the point of Travel Tales: Idiots Abroad is purely and simply to make you laugh... to enjoy, for all it's worth, the many moments among two thousand or so travelers of their shared moments of smiles, of chuckles, of laughs, and yes, of belly laughs, too. This is the time to enjoy those special moments that you, yourself, just happened to be the focus of or perhaps at the behest of others.And make no mistake, whereas some of these stories and laughs are so profoundly silly, others are the stuff of keepsake memories. Many of the funny accounts of travelers in Travel Tales: Idiots Abroad are the tales of others; many are about us making others laugh instead, yes... often at our own expense. And that makes them especially funny and memorable.Yes, indeed, we are often the Crazy Stupit Scoundrels, ourselves, and I am one of you! I have often, myself, been the Idiot Abroad, and I am all the happier and prouder for it! The travel tales told in Idiots Abroad are things we got away with and laughed about later. Pouring bubble bath in Trafalgar fountain in London, getting away with things we'd dare not do at home, even, like eating critters in restaurants we'd never think of doing but for being overseas, like daring to eat a "pressed rabbit" (a roasted guinea pig in Peru), or Steak Tartare (raw horsemeat in France) or a potentially deadly poisonous fugu fish in Japan! Yep, like trying to talk two Italian motorcycle cops out of giving you a speeding ticket - and succeeding! - yes... in Italy for God's sake (everybody speeds in Italy!).Nope, such adventures may not ever happen to you, but assuredly something funny will! You'll laugh at these stories in Travel Tales: Idiots Abroad; you'll remember your own; you'll look forward to your next laughs overseas. And after you pick up this book, read a tale or two, and set it back down; you'll do so with a smile.- Shop: buecher

No Dream Is Too High: Life Lessons from a Man Who Walked on the Moon , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 345min
Everywhere he goes, crowds gather to meet Buzz Aldrin. He's a world-class hero, a larger-than-life figurehead, and the best known of a generation of astronauts whose achievements surged in just a few years from first man in space to first men on the moon. Now he pauses to reflect on and share what he has learned, from the vantage point not only of outer space but also of time: Still a nonstop traveler and impassioned advocate for space exploration, Aldrin will be 86 in 2016. No Dream Is Too High whittles down Buzz Aldrin's event-filled life into a short list of the principles he values, each illustrated by fascinating anecdotes and memories, such as: Second comes right after first. NASA protocol should have placed Buzz Aldrin on the moon first, but rules changed just before the mission. Buzz discusses how he learned to be proud of being the second man on the moon. Look for opportunities, not obstacles. Buzz was rejected the first time he applied to be an astronaut. Failure is an opportunity to learn to do better. Always maintain your spirit of adventure. For his 80th birthday, Buzz went diving in the Galapagos and hitched a ride on a whale shark. He stays fit, energetic, and fascinated with life. No Dream Is Too High is a beautiful memento, a thought-provoking set of ideas, and a new opportunity for Buzz Aldrin to connect with the masses of people who recognize his unique place in human history. ungekürzt.

Stripping Down to the Bones , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 393min
I never had the guts to sit in the back of the bus with the bad boys, being known as a 'nice girl' - a dreaded label if you wanted to be part of the in crowd. This is the story of a girl who grows up running on the back roads of the Midwest and winds up taking the long way home. How does this pretty, educated, organically grown girl become an outcast in her own country? Set against the backdrops of the competitive University of Michigan, the vast Front Range of Colorado, the concrete jungle of Los Angeles, and a small backwoods home town in Michigan, this story winds its way through untrammeled wilderness as the search for belonging unfolds. Who does she think she is? How does she go about answering this question? Is she only who others think she is? The narrative is often reflective, questioning the very nature of real life experiences and expanding on the greater issues that lie just under the surface. The narrative is honest and does not sidestep the inconvenient or the uncomfortable, but rather sheds light on the "convenient untruths" that many use as crutches to get through life. There are no neatly tied up endings and no answers given here. The goal is to challenge conventional thinking, cross out easy answers, and draw the reader into the mind and heart of this examined life. Even with the reflective pauses in the narrative, the pacing flows smoothly as each short chapter merges into the next as water falls over rocks. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Merry Clark.

The Life of Our Lord: Written for his own Children by Charles Dickens 1849 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 85min
This book, the last work of Charles Dickens to be published, is peculiarly personal to the writer. The manuscript was entirely handwritten and kept in his home solely for the use of his own children. It was never intended for publication, but rather written in a form which Dickens thought most suitable for his own youngsters, and they might have a permanent record of their father's thoughts. After his death the manuscript passed into the possession of his sister-in-law, Miss Georgina Hogarth, and when she died in 1917 it passed to Sir Henry Fielding Dickens, who was Charles Dickens' son. Sir Henry was averse to publishing the manuscript in his own lifetime, but saw no reason why it should be withheld from the world's children after his death. The Life of Our Lord first appeared in serial form in 1934. In this book, Charles Dickens tells the story of the life of Jesus Christ in a beautiful and simple way, so that it can be understood by young children. He combines his own skillful wordsmanship with a deep understanding of how the child's mind works. He is at pains to explain words which might be unfamiliar, but which he wishes his children to learn, such as parable and Saviour. He also pauses to describe locusts and camels and other creatures which his London-bred children might not recognise. Particularly impressive is his retelling and interpretation of the parables, which he makes accessible in language which today's child will easily understand. The world's most beloved stories, retold by the world's greatest storyteller, to the people he loved the most. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Cathy Dobson.

Did you know you're always missing out on half of the conversation? Scientists have proven that words only make up seven percent of face-to-face communication. The tone of your voice, the speed and rhythm of your speech, and the pauses you make between words account for 38 percent. Fifty-five percent of face-to-face communication is body language.If you're not paying close attention to body language, you're literally ignoring more than half of all the information that's being exchanged between you and the person you're talking to. And that hidden half is extremely interesting. Since most people don't control their body language, their bodies always speak the truth about their thoughts and feelings. Since most people don't pay conscious attention to your body language, you can use it to speak directly to their subconsciousness. You can awaken their sexual instincts, create a feeling of trust, make them fear you, and much more!With this audiobook, you'll understand body language just as well as you can understand English. Here's a sneak peek of what you'll discover inside:The reason why you shouldn't only look at people's facesExpert tips that will help you detect a lie immediatelySelf-defense tactics for keeping dangerous people at bayThe body language trick that instantly helps you get into people’s mindsAnd much more!If you follow the book's advice exactly, you'll become better at analyzing people in a matter of days.
