Leaving the Comfort Zone

The Adventure of a Lifetime

This book showcases what it’s like to experience the full spectrum of life. From encountering different cultures to embracing the freedom of nature, making friendships, and traversing through new landscapes, this adventure ultimately takes you on a journey of self-discovery.

Filled with striking imagery and expert advice, this book details a 40,000 kilometer journey spanning four years across several countries and continents using one's own muscle power.

Leaving the Comfort Zone provides valuable first hand accounts and insights to plan your own expedition, from where to stay, what to eat, and who you might expect to encounter along the way.
