5 Travel Books That Will Change Your Life Bashny.Net

One thought has haunted me for a long time. This is it. Sometimes, in order to find answers to your questions, you need to leave your home.. Not everyone likes this phrase, because “houses and walls heal” is the conventional wisdom.

But what if the world was created to know itself through its new cities and countries? What if we don’t have a single home? What if the world is our home, and the answers to our questions lie in different parts of the world? I love this idea, and these books are proof of it.





1. Desert Flower by Varies Dirie

Walking across the desert, first to my sister in the city of Magadisho, and then with my uncle straight to London. The city where she will become one of the highest paid models and star in a film about James Bond. The true story of the model and UN Goodwill Ambassador for Combating the Consequences of Female Circumcision, Varies Dirie, who, using her personal example, showed what the phrase “take every opportunity” really means (the film “Desert Flower” was shot).
