Recenzii
His easy-going charm and passion for discovery are captivating
Palin is as engaging a writer as he is a presenter, and one keeps turning the pages with anticipation and pleasure
Palin is the Python we all want to go abroad with
He observes shrewdly, writes wittily; laughs with, not at, the people he meets, and charmingly slips in a huge amount of information. His approach still towers above its imitators
The ultimate armchair travel book
