Inspiring, informative and entertaining, this one-of-a-kind book makes a great gift for aspiring travellers or those who need a motivation to stop dreaming and start packing their bags. Lonely Planet's mission is to inspire and enable travellers to connect with the world. Yet the vast majority of North Americans are letting this opportunity pass them by. Only 20 percent of Americans and 40 percent of Canadians hold a passport. With an introduction by international travel authority and Lonely Planet founder Tony Wheeler, Don't Let the World Pass You By! offers 52 lighthearted yet convincing reasons to travel abroad, from Reason #30 Watch Wild Wildlife and Reason #27 Experience Extraordinary Events (run with the bulls at Pamploma) all the way to Reason #12 Sex (the romance of the open road and flirting in foreign tongues). Also included in this handy-sized book is the history of passports and stories from everyday people about how travel changed their lives.

52 reasons I vaguely already knew but the vignettes of other travelers added a lot to this quick read. Can‘t wait til my renewed passport gets here!
