Eat Pray Love meets Want.Wayward Women is a unique, searingly honest, devastatingly raw two-person memoir about the friendship, travels and sex lives of two fiftysomething women finding their way again after divorce.Its an entertaining, emotional and geographical journey that bounces around the world from Florida to India, Lapland to Hong Kong, as the authors -both leading travel writers - relay their experiences as midlife women love, loss, parenthood, divorce, menopause along with the tales of the inspirational women they meet along the way, and the growth of their friendship.

A leading travel journalists depicts and predicts the good, the bad, and the ugly about the future of travel and how we can transcend the complications of climate change, AI, and touristification in this latest addition to the FUTURES Series.In the future, tourists will strap on a VR headset that serves up information about the storefronts and cathedrals they pass, letting them "see Paris" without actually laying eyes on it. Instant-translation earbuds will mean well never have to learn the words Donde esta la biblioteca? and who needs a library or bookstore when Spanish-English dictionaries and guidebooks are obsolete?Meanwhile, thanks to AI, travelers will have an unprecedented fount of information at their disposal but how much of it can be trusted? And is it really "saving time" if AI bots are sending everyone to stand in line at already-overrun tourist spots?In the coming years, more cities and countries will take drastic measures to combat not only a flood of tourist but of a growing worldwide workforce of "location-independent professionals," enacting congestion pricing and car-free zones, and grounding budget airlines such as Ryanair (or "Ruinair," as climate activists have dubbed it) in favor of zero-emission, hydrogen-fueled train networks.In The Future of Travel, award-winning food and travel writer Daniel Maurer himself a veteran globetrotter will predict epic tugs-of-war between the travelers and the locals and what happens when technology allows entire new classes of travelers to move as far as they can, as much as they can.

Fresh from a night in a Miami jail, Steven lands in Guatemala City, ready for riotous road trips fuelled by booze, cocaine and passionate curiosity about people from all walks of life.His guide? Antonio, a sweet-natured, streetwise hotel concierge who shepherds Steven through colonial Antigua, the volcanic shores of Lake Atitlan and the untamed beaches of Monterrico. Danger is never far off, but neither are laughs and theres plenty of both when Steven accompanies Antonio on a visit to his rural home village.Then theres Anabella, a glamourous, garrulous, middle-aged woman with whom Steven strikes up an unlikely friendship, accompanying her back to the capital with her family. There he mooches an open-ended stay in her gated community, which bristles with armed guards and famous eccentrics.Froelichs gonzo travelogue is a darkly hilarious, unapologetic plunge into beauty and madness, privilege and privation. With a raw, witty voice, Froelich explores the absurdities of the human condition, never letting truth get in the way of a good story.

Hes back! In this second instalment of Steven Froelichs Latin American odyssey, the Man Without a Plan lands in Belize, a country he knows nothing about. But Froelich has a talent for making himself at home wherever he is, amassing an impressive array of new friends in a short time some of whom can even match his penchant for being in a near-constant buzz from industrial-quantity drugs and drink.As ever, the cock-a-hoop characters Steven ingratiates himself with become his surrogate dysfunctional family. But Tracey, Devonais, Ask Bobby!, Valentino and a pack of feral kids led by the gleefully destructive Molokai soon have Steven wondering whether or not his cheerfully transactional relationships are, in fact, binding him ever more tightly in a web of scams that threatens to leave him broke and stranded in this shabby paradise. Is his paranoia justifiable, or is that just the continuous cocaine use? His response is to agree to renting an SUV and embarking all together on a road trip along the coast, taking in shantytowns, fine hotels, beaches and, at a low ebb, jail. Why do mechanics keep appearing every time the truck mysteriously fails? Why are his credit cards failing just as frequently? Whos zoomin who?Coarse, irresponsible and wilfully ignorant, Froelich is nevertheless observant and caring at heart and Belize is about the ways in which chaotic, complex human beings find community, no matter where theyre from or where theyre headed.Features twelve full-colour illustrations by Froelichs collaborator Oscar Zarate.
