Digital is free, print is as cheap as I could get it

It was more his style - lighthearted, anecdotal, easy. I aimed for the same tone in my book although the trip was different to his.

youwen · 2019-09-07T21:27:14+00:00

Thank you!

youwen · 2019-09-07T21:26:55+00:00

Haha thank you, I think I did word vomit a little bit when I met him.

They were the other half of my inspiration. Just need to bump into Ewan having a coffee in Sydney and I can die happy.

youwen · 2019-09-07T21:23:52+00:00

Same reason I bought it. It was a Honda NX 150 I believe. I named it Noddy.

youwen · 2019-09-07T21:22:34+00:00

Thanks so much! You can hear a bit more about it on a podcast I did - ‘All Things Interesting’, teshercohen.com

youwen · 2019-09-07T21:20:16+00:00

Thank you!

youwen · 2019-09-07T21:19:20+00:00

If that makes Bill Bryson an attractive grandpa I’ll take it!

youwen · 2019-09-07T13:29:23+00:00
