Chaque année, des hommes, femmes et enfants disparaissent dans les forêts et espaces naturels américains dans des circonstances inexpliquées, parfois en l'espace d'un instant. Certains sont, heureusement, retrouvés mais ce n'est parfois que le début du mystère, car ils livrent des récits étranges. Mais il y a pire : des personnes portées disparues sont découvertes décédées dans des conditions obscures. Le plus terrifiant concerne la proportion de citoyens américains partis en randonnée ou à la chasse et qu'on ne revoit plus jamais.

A typical book about an American founding father doesn’t start at a gay piano bar and end in a sewage ditch. But then, Tom Paine isn’t your typical founding father. A firebrand rebel and a radical on the run, Paine alone claims a key role in the development of three modern democracies. In death, his story turns truly bizarre. Shunned as an infidel by every church, he had to be interred in an open field on a New York farm. Ten years later, a former enemy converting to Paine’s cause dug up the bones and carried them back to Britain.

To National Book Award-winning author Barry Lopez, the desert and the river are landscapes alive with poetry, mystery, seduction, and enchantment. In these two works of fiction, the narrator responds viscerally and emotionally to their moods and changes, their secrets and silences, and their unique power. Desert Notes portrays the mystical power of an American desert, and the reflections it sparks in the characters who travel there. River Notes, a companion piece, celebrates the wild life forces of a river.

I Knew This Place by John MacKenna is a collection of 28 of his radio essays from RTE's radio program Sunday Miscellany. The radio essays in this collection were described by The Irish Times as "enchantments woven with rich and intimate language, snapshots of lives lived, and days passed, distinctly Irish and yet utterly universal".

It offers strong stories and a depth of reflection that provides comfort, questions, and laughter.

Quando M., il suo compagno, muore, Esther Kinsky decide di partire comunque per il viaggio che avevano organizzato in Italia. Un'Italia lontana dagli stereotipi e dalle cartoline, dalle piazze affollate di turisti, dalle vie dello shopping. È un'Italia, quella che Esther Kinsky visita, immergendosi in profondità nello spirito di ogni luogo per coglierne il mistero nascosto, fatta di villaggi e vigneti, di cimiteri, di vecchi ponti di pietra.

More than 200 years later, the “voyage of discovery” — with its outsized characters, geographic marvels, and wondrous moments of adventure and mystery — continues to draw us along the Lewis and Clark Trail. Revisit the Lewis and Clark Trail and its famous people, landmarks, and events, exploring questions the expedition continues to raise, such as, What really motivated Thomas Jefferson to send out his agents of discovery? What “mutinous expressions” were uttered? What happened to the dog? Why did Meriwether Lewis end his own life?

Why do we travel, what are we looking for, and will we recognize it if we find it? With the author’s 50th birthday looming, there seemed a need for something significant to happen. Not seeing an expiry date on his birth certificate made it hard to gauge when to have a mid-life crisis, but he’d almost definitely left it too late.

Nel 1961, in compagnia di Alberto Moravia ed Elsa Morante, Pasolini si reca per la prima volta in India. Le emozioni e le sensazioni provate sono così intense da spingerlo a scrivere queste pagine, un diario di viaggio divenuto un libro di culto. Pasolini si aggira attento nella realtà caotica del subcontinente indiano, osservando i gesti e le movenze della gente, seguendo i colori dei paesaggi e soprattutto l'odore della vita.

Parigi e New York le conoscono in tanti. Ma chi sa qual è il caffè più trendy di Sarajevo o il mercatino più divertente di Tunisi? Francesca Paci apre i suoi diari di viaggio e racconta le città fuori fuoco, quelle dei nuovi mondi, in cui ancora c'è tanto da scoprire e dove la storia si fa ogni giorno, anche adesso.

Per svago, per studio e per lavoro. Ci spostiamo continuamente, per periodi più o meno lunghi, sempre più spesso e sempre più lontano. E quando non siamo noi a viaggiare, lo fanno le merci, le mode, le idee. Ma cosa succede nella testa di chi viaggia? Quando e perché decidiamo di partire? Che cosa cerchiamo? Cosa ci guida nella scelta della meta e che cosa lasciamo per poter veramente trovare noi stessi?

A dream come true. But more than that. A dream I had given up on, hidden from myself, brought to light, and then realised. And yet, the first time I saw orangutans in Semenggoh, semi-wild, it was not the experience I had hoped for. Sarawak is so much more than orangutans, and in coming here to visit them I learned so much more about their world, our world and my own world.

Camminare è un modo di respirare e di conoscere, un ritmo con cui si sceglie di vivere, una trasformazione costante. È una via per incontrare gli altri superando confini, pregiudizi, inibizioni. Per Enrico Brizzi, scrittore, padre, pellegrino, il cammino è una danza, una preghiera, una musica senza parole che segue il respiro antico del mondo, libera la mente dall'inessenziale e vince il drago che si nasconde in ognuno di noi.

Nina Sovich had always yearned for adventures in faraway places; she imagined herself leading the life of a solitary traveler. Yet at the age of 34, she found herself married and contemplating motherhood. Unwittingly, she had followed life’s script, and now she needed to cast it out. Inspired by female explorers like Mary Kingsley, who explored Gabon’s jungle in the 1890s, and Karen Blixen, who ran a farm in Kenya during World War I, Sovich packed her bags and hopped on the next plane to Africa in search of adventure.

We talk about awakening, awareness, and other terms in healing. They’ve become quite the buzz words (along with “woke,”) but, for me, what I would call my awakening was a momentary death of ego and a rebirth of mind, body, and spirit.
