Publisher's Summary:

All men have heard about the sexy secrets of Brazil, but finding them out for yourself can be difficult on your own.

Outside of seedy back pages written in Portuguese, knowing where to go to meet the right girls can be difficult, knowing who you can trust is impossible, and making sure you stay safe can be daunting.

Internet forums will speak in codes and never give you the right information, other travel guides skirt around the topic, and all the juiciest tips to be found aren't in English.

This is where this Brazil Travel Guide for Men comes in. Written in plain English, it will walk you through Brazil's sex scene and give advice and tips for finding the best spots and clubs in some of Brazil's most beloved cities and tourist destinations.

Get a rundown on the best time of year to visit Brazil to meet girls, the most cost-effective way to scout different venues, and which cities to hit up on your tour.

Discover the many different venues available to you on the Brazil scene, from the samba-swirling girls on the dance floors of a boite to the luxurious and stress-free goddesses in Brazil's termas to a cheerful quickie with a chica in one of the coveted massage parlors.

Your choices are nearly endless, and once the lingo has been deciphered you will be able to get exactly what you want wherever you are.

Find in-depth guides to the scenes in Fortaleza, Recife, Salvador, Rio de Janeiro, and Sao Paulo. From the rainforests to the mountains to the harbors, Brazil has a rich variety of things to offer, and this Brazilian travel guide will give you the keys to them all.

Get in and around the main beach cities, discover the best beach fronts and locations for meeting freelance girls, find the vibrant red-light districts, and stay safe in a recommended love motel.

Great overview

The book gives a great overview on which trips I wanted to take but lacks a lot of details. Still amazing!

Awesome guide!

Love this book! So many wonderful ideas for road trips for two very happy retired people who love to travel. Purchased it after taking it out from library and realizing this was a keeper.

Loved it!

Great book. Helped us a lot on our cross country trip. Visited things that we would not have known about. Relied on it for insider info. Loved it!!!

Excellent

The plans differ in length and all we have to do is decide how long we want to be gone. Excellent!

Great trip plans

Great trip plans written in an easy to follow travel plan. There planned trips really do not need any improvement by the traveler as they cover all the best locations in the travel area for the number of days that are planed to be used.

Title: Travel Adventures: Norway

Author: Henrik Berezin

Narrator: Bill Georato

Format: Unabridged

Length: 6 hrs and 56 mins

Language: English

Release date: 11-22-16

Publisher: Hunter Publishing, Inc.

Genres: Travel & Adventure, Essays & Travelogues

Publisher's Summary:

On an international scale, Oslo is a pretty small capital but, with just over 500,000 people, it's Norway's biggest city by far. More than 10% of the country's total population lives here; if we count people in the entire Oslofjord area in the summertime, it amounts to one third of the population in Norway. What makes Oslo unique is its location. The Oslofjord links the city with the sea to the south. In the other three directions you find mountains, lakes and forests within easy reach from the city center. This means that wherever you are in Oslo you have natural beauty just around the corner. In the winter, you can go from the shopping areas downtown to the ski slopes in just 20 minutes. The summers offer even more opportunities as both Marka and the Oslofjord with its islands are popular destinations for the people of Oslo and its many visitors. Norway has a population of just over four and a half million people and has one of the lowest population densities in Europe with 12 people per square km. Bergen is the second-biggest city in Norway with 230,000 people. Trondheim comes in third with 140,000.

Title: Alone in the Wind

Subtitle: A Journal of Discovery in 'The Summer of 88'

Author: Charles L. Schiereck

Narrator: Mark Rossman

Format: Unabridged

Length: 4 hrs and 6 mins

Language: English

Release date: 11-14-16

Publisher: Mr. Charles L Schiereck

Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 1 votes

Genres: Travel & Adventure, Essays & Travelogues

Publisher's Summary:

In the long hot summer of '88, the author packed up his motorcycle and pulled out of the garage with no destination or return date in mind. The year 1988 would prove to be the worst drought since the dustbowl of the 1930s. Yellowstone would burn, Ronald Reagan would shake his fist at the Evil Empire, and the author, oblivious to it all, hit the road and never looked back. That trip would consume the entire summer, logging over 12,000 miles from sea to sea and back. Alone in the Wind is the account of that trip.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio.

Members Reviews:

A great travel adventure story, told in a modern "Steinbeck" kind of way. Well done!

This is a great traveling book story. Almost everyone can identify with a "road trip" and this is one of the ultimate ones. Since I have been to all or many of the places and remember my own feelings and good times (and not so good). It is great for the detail and descriptions of the location, the weather and the situation. Easy to put yourself into the authors boots. Also, the decisions the author makes are not without the normal internal tormenting, should I or shouldn't I.

An easy read which is great for bringing everyone back in touch with their own "wanderlust".

Highly recommend.

It also rekindles the spirit for new adventures!!!!

Well done.

Fantastic Journey of Discovery!

Anyone who cherishes the imagery of searching for freedom through a road trip will love this story. Ride along with Chuck on his motorcycle exploring the open road as he travels cross country to discover many things, including himself.

Even if you've never ridden a motorcycle, you will enjoy Chuck's adventure through his vivid descriptions of the grandeur and spirit of some of America's greatest natural resources--our National Parks.

You too might find, as Chuck did, that people are "transformed gradually by the sum of their experiences and learning."

Thanks for taking me on your journey.

New coloring book

Was so tickled to see my own personal Scout in the book.. but almost gray-scale with some of the photos. Somewhat busy looking. Maybe using smaller lines would help tone it down a little bit.

Thoroughly enjoyed this adventure

Thoroughly enjoyed this adventure. Being a biker from south Jersey and having logged thousands of miles I can relate. I will be recommending this to my friends. Very well written and easy to read. Made me want to pack the bike and hit the road. Thank you Charles.

Good Ride; Good Read

I'm a fan of bike trips and this was well written and engaging. You always want to learn more about the person and people, rather than just the mechanics of riding a motorcycle.

Enjoy!

England, guidebook, audiobook -------------------

What fun! This guide was written as the author toured the area and noted all of the fun things being done by locals and tourists alike, complete with impatient drivers and sheep wandering the road. Places and people of historical interest are presented, places to stay in various towns and villages, levels of difficulty for various rambles, and the most useful phone numbers.

Mark Isham does a fine job as narrator, but you might want to listen at a little slower speed.

needs editing and other improvements

This is a mere printout of a draft version of a book. Even the writer's name is not clear (is it Susan Misslin [on the cover] or Darrel Lancaster [on the title page]?), the table of contents has bad formatting and wrong page numbers, and the text has spelling errors (on page 48: the "River Oaks Gulf Course" for a golf course). Other problems exist as well. There are no maps. Presumably the facts are accurate and useful, but this is definitely not a Fodor's travel guide.

Limited value

None of wineries have addresses, phone numbers or opening times. Same with restaurants. Not worth the money.

Very inexpensive amateurish publication.

Simply written-basic-no frills but had some good tips.

Title: Bike Trip

Subtitle: How We Bicycled Across America

Author: Steve Bobulinski

Narrator: Steve Bobulinski

Format: Unabridged

Length: 5 hrs and 27 mins

Language: English

Release date: 11-01-16

Publisher: Steve Bobulinski

Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 16 votes

Genres: Travel & Adventure, Essays & Travelogues

Publisher's Summary:

This is the tale of two people who quit their jobs, packed up and stored all of their belongings, and rode 10-speed bicycles across the North American continent, pedaling though North America and British Columbia. Filled with heartfelt anecdotes and colorful characters, this story delivers a unique look at how two amateurs accomplished this feat.

Members Reviews:

Inspiring, sincere, but sounds a bit too gritty

I chose this book because I've gone on some bike tours and hope to complete the Trans America trail this summer. That's the the same trail that the author rode with his wife, Cindy. One of the best parts of this audio book was it's gritty sincerity. You feel like you're one of the many great people who met Steve and Cindy, took care of them, and heard their wonderful stories--the good, the bad, the ugly, and the wonderful. But the grittiness of the audio book sometimes went too far. At times in the audio book, you can clearly hear background noises, such as thunderstorms, sirens, and more. For the most part, I enjoyed the the voice and style of Steve, who read the book, but after a few hours of listening to it, I wanted a more professional reader. Those readers have a wide range of vocal styles to clarify subtle, funny, and powerful moments. Steve is a good writer, but his speaking style is primarily a powerful sound to a more powerful sound. Having said all this, I enjoyed the book and recommend it to anyone whose interested in cycling, low-cost travel, and real-life adventures.

Great achievement, ok story, bad narrator.

The achievement to go across the country on a bicycle in the seventies in undeniable and great. The narrator is just reading the paper copy out loud. It could have been good with a great story teller.

What an incredible journey

Thoroughly enjoyed this book. The story was amazing, and the narrator was excellent. Highly recommend.

YEA

I'm 65 and I want to do this. This book is a inspiration! It's not to late.

I wish there was more of it!

Would you consider the audio edition of Bike Trip to be better than the print version?

I don't have the print version but will purchase it if available.

What did you like best about this story?

The details of the adventure which was obviously well-documented then, and the narration from the now. Beautifully written and masterfully narrated.

Which character as performed by Steve Bobulinski was your favorite?

Steve himself. He was vulnerable, heroic, thoughtful, and extremely likable.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

A beautiful, life-changing journey taken with open hearts & open minds on the open road.

Any additional comments?

I wish there was more of it. I was sorry it ended, but loved the ride.

Title: The Revolution Where You Live

Subtitle: Stories from a 12,000-Mile Journey Through a New America

Author: Sarah van Gelder

Narrator: Natalie Hoyt

Format: Unabridged

Length: 5 hrs and 40 mins

Language: English

Release date: 10-27-16

Publisher: Berrett-Koehler Publishers

Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 3 votes

Genres: Travel & Adventure, Essays & Travelogues

Publisher's Summary:

Like many of us, YES! Magazine cofounder Sarah van Gelder was alarmed about the state of American society. The deep divides, racial violence, climate change, economic insecurity, and inequality - is our society coming unraveled? Has anyone got answers? She confided her fears to a friend, who said, "If the universe could deploy the one small person that is you, what would it have you do?" Her answer surprised them both: "I'd go out traveling and see for myself."

Driving a 12-year-old Toyota pickup with a tiny camper, she visited 18 states and five Indian reservations, big cities, and small towns. Instead of staying in the centers of power, where people are richly rewarded for their allegiance to the status quo, she headed out on the back roads of Montana and North Dakota; to the abandoned neighborhoods of Detroit, Chicago, Cincinnati, and Newark; to Appalachia and Greensboro, North Carolina; and home via Texas, New Mexico, and Utah.

Van Gelder invites you to come with her as she meets the quirky and the committed, the local heroes and the healers who, under the mass media's radar, are getting stuff done. The common thread running through their work was best summed up by a phrase she saw on a mural in Newark: "We the People LOVE This Place." That connection we each have to our physical and ecological place, and to our human community, is where we find our power and our best hopes for a new America.

Members Reviews:

Timely and Inspiring

While the broad range of places and issues made it a bit difficult to completely connect to the story, the main message is as necessary as ever and provides valuable insight.

This short, easy to read, easy to love book

This is such a simple book - simple to read, simple to understand, and simple to love. And yet it goes so deep, right into the hearts that struggle and the hearts that yearn for a better way of living, beyond the chaos and fear that America has become. Sarah van Gelder is a founder of YES! Magazine, based up in the Pacific Northwest, and for years she and her team have been sharing positive, visionary and yet practical stories about how we can change the world.

In this short, easy to read and easy to love book she tells of the 12,000 mile journey she took alone in her little camper van, travelling around America from Montana to Detroit, from the Appalachians to Newark, from North Carolina to New Mexico, meeting black people, white people, Latino people, indigenous people, all Americans, people working to bring healing, love and resilience to their communities and their economies.

I have read many books about building a new world and a new economy, but what Sarah achieves is to make it all so eminently personal, through the people she meets, who share their loves, their struggles,and their work to make a better world. I would like every high school graduate in every school in America to be given a copy a month before they leave school, saying "Look, here are other people, trying to make sense of this world, to love it and heal it: have faith, have hope, get to know your community, work hard, and together, we will change the world." I can feel the change that some will experience in their hearts, and know what a difference it will make.

This was a very interesting book. It was exactly what it says it is. I have never cruised before and now I don't know if I want to go even more or am now too scared to go. It was a lot of informative information about cruises. It also has some humorous parts included. I'm glad I read/listened to it (I have an audible copy also). This is a good book for Cruise Pro and Cruise Virgins.

Cruiser

Ok in its content and hits a lot of what we had already discovered for ourselves. Newbies can benefit, though one cannot expect all matter to be exactly as seen by any ones perspective.

Best guide out there.

Ukraine is one of the places I really want to visit and after I read this guide I am certain that I have to bring this book with me when I go there. there are a lot of useful information written clearly in this book and I must say that this is the best book I have read so far. the author really presents it so well and I love it.

Not worth the money

This is a short photocopied book with information such as "use Air BNB for best housing options". It is a basic internet search in book form.

Kiev Book

Simple book, but right to the point.

excellent

Excellent Ukraine travel guide! The author invest a lot of time in researching this guide. It has far more information than I require for my intended visit. The book provides many restaurants and sites of interest in each area that I hope to explore, so I will be busy enough pursuing the featured locations. Worth recommending!

Disappointing

Only 38 pages long. Very few details. Mentions only 2 hotels, and does not include addresses or contact information for these hotels. Calling this a "travel guide" is misleading. On back cover it implies this book is better than "free Internet Kiev travel guides," but I've found much better information online. I will probably return this.
