When Amanda K. Jaros learns about the 2,160-mile Appalachian Trail after college, she walks away from a sheltered life dominated by an angry and volatile father and does something unexpected: spends six months backpacking. Alone. She expects to pass the time in the solitary and peaceful wilderness, reflecting on her life's direction. Instead, she finds herself part of a community ripe with stinky socks, buckets of ice cream, and trail magic. What matters on the trail is not a hiker's past or parents, her fears or failures, but rather, what matters is the connections we make with each other.

In 1980, Graham Broyd did something outrageous—he sold his scholarship ticket to Washington, DC, bought a one-way flight to Los Angeles, and set off to hitchhike across America. Armed with a red backpack, a surfboard, and a knack for finding himself in both incredible and ridiculous situations, he bummed rides, crashed on beaches, and stumbled into experiences that would shape him forever. From rolling the dice in Vegas to interviewing senators in Congress, from the open roads of the West to the neon chaos of New York City, every mile brought a new story.

In 1987, thirty-seven footer Trishna, crewed by army officers, became the first Indian boat to circumnavigate the globe. They braved rogue waves sweeping away life-saving equipment, sailed through pods of whales frolicking perilously close, survived the worst storm to have hit Sydney in nearly a century, taking over fifteen months and covering over fifty thousand kilometers. Major A.K. Singh, one of the members of this historic crew, vibrantly describes the epic voyage.

A bordo del Supercamper dei suoi genitori, Matteo ha imparato a conoscere il mondo. A viaggiare, a vedere i tramonti da nuove prospettive, ad assaporare nuovi inizi, a intuire il luogo d'arrivo di strade sconosciute, piene di polvere o di insegne stradali scritte in chissà quale lingua. In questa guida turistico-letteraria, Matteo Cavezzali riassume molte delle sensazioni di chi viaggia, di chi si lancia all'avventura, perché quella del viaggiatore è una figura composta sì da infinite singolarità, ma che in fondo riflette uno spirito comune, un desiderio e una capacità di meravigliarsi collettivi.
