Amanschäuser covers all aspects of travel and transportation: from pedestrians and traffic lights to a disastrous navigational malfunction, train travel experiences, and why sleeping on airplanes is preferable to sleeping on buses.
Alongside historical anecdotes about staying home, Amanschäuser offers advice on places to absolutely avoid and places to absolutely visit. He shares stories of his encounters with locals, ethical tourism and its impact on the climate, suitcases with wheels and advancements in cartography, a case of motion sickness that wasn’t actually motion sickness, and an island that never existed.
In short, an informative and entertaining journey.
