In his memoir, author and television presenter Simon Reeve talks about his amazing adventures in more than 120 countries in some of the most remote and extreme corners of the planet.
He has explored epic landscapes, dodged bullets on front lines, walked through minefields and even been detained for spying by the KGB. His travels have taken him across jungles, deserts, mountains and oceans, and to some of the most beautiful, dangerous and remote regions of the world.
In this revelatory and frank account of his life, Reeve recounts the details behind some of his favourite expeditions, but he also talks about his own inspiring personal journey. How he left school without qualifications and a dark period in his life when he found himself standing on the edge of a bridge. He is open and honest about overcoming his challenges required to make changes to his life ...step by step.
