Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shivya Nath quit her corporate job at age twenty-three to travel the world. She gave up her home and the need for a permanent address, sold most of her possessions and embarked on a nomadic journey that has taken her everywhere from remote Himalayan villages to the Amazon rainforests of Ecuador. Along the way, she lived with an indigenous Mayan community in Guatemala, hiked alone in the Ecuadorian Andes, got mugged in Costa Rica, swam across the border from Costa Rica to Panama, slept under a meteor shower in the cracked salt desert of Gujarat and learnt to conquer her deepest fears. With its vivid descriptions, cinematic landscapes, moving encounters and uplifting adventures, The Shooting Star is a travel memoir that maps not just the world but the human spirit.

Book excerpt: A wise, passionate account of the pleasures of traveling solo In our hectic, hyperconnected lives, many people are uncomfortable with the prospect of solitude. Yet a little time to ourselves can be an opportunity to slow down, savor, and try new things, especially when traveling. Through on-the-ground reporting, insights from social science, and recounting the experiences of artists, writers, and innovators who cherished solitude, Stephanie Rosenbloom considers how traveling alone deepens appreciation for everyday beauty, bringing into sharp relief the sights, sounds, and smells that one isn't necessarily attuned to in the presence of company. Walking through four cities--Paris, Florence, Istanbul, and New York--and four seasons, Alone Time gives us permission to pause, to relish the sensual details of the world rather than hurtling through museums and uploading photos to Instagram. In chapters about dining out, visiting museums, and pursuing knowledge, we begin to see how the moments we have to ourselves--on the road or at home--can be used to enrich our lives. Rosenbloom's engaging and elegant prose makes Alone Time as warmly intimate an account as the details of a trip shared by a beloved friend--and will have its many readers eager to set off on their own solo adventures.

Book excerpt: My favorite travel quote is: "One of life's most beautiful ironies is we often travel to lose ourselves but end up finding ourselves." So simple yet so profound! We often travel alone to seek an escape from our world, and then end up discovering things within us that we never knew existed. Solo travel unveils your true character like few other things. Left on a solitary adventure in an unknown land with unknown people, you learn to navigate life's most vital survival skills. You develop the art of negotiating, communicating with people from different cultures and surviving in unknown terrains. Your first solo trip can be a highly spiritual and life-changing experience. It has the potential to transform you from an inhibited and unsure person to a self-assured and confident one. Coming back safely from a solo trip gives you the confidence that you can look after your own health, safety, money, and essentials. You realize you are independent and can look after your interests. The idea that you've survived in destinations unknown and unfamiliar to you give an unmatched confidence boost. If you're on the fence about a solo trip, I'd say go for it! Life will never be the same again. The perspective with which you'll view yourself and people around you will change forever. Take in new experiences, enjoy new surroundings and cultures, eliminate prejudices, and adapt to the preferences of locals or traveling companions. Solo travel gives you an opportunity to indulge and discover yourself... John Eastman
