The Travel Bug Goes Forth

This is the fourth book in the 'Travel Bug' series, following the success of 'Catch the Travel Bug', 'No Cure for the Travel Bug', and 'The Travel Bug Goes Viral'. The world is changing so fast, and even the wildest places are relatively easy to reach. We continue to search for such places, but making due allowance for our ever-advancing years. Each chapter is self-contained and covers a different journey. It is not meant to be a guidebook. Just pick a section from the contents page that interests you, and let us transport you there.
