Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1965 Patricia and her new husband set off for a honeymoon in Europe. Little did she know that this trip would turn into a two-year journey that would take them around the world on a bare-bones budget, living in a camper van for the first year and then making their way across Asia by train, bus, and hitchhiking. In those days with no mobile phones, no Internet, and few guidebooks, they were out of contact with family for months at a time while dodging a cholera epidemic in Iraq, meeting with a maharaja in India, sleeping in a palace in Pakistan, and floating down the Mekong River in Laos. The journey had become a way of life.
