About the book
Trading skills for accommodation, hitchhiking across continents, and relying on the kindness of strangers, Wigge's adventure is equal parts inspiration and comedy. From working on a Hawaiian coffee plantation to crossing the Pacific by sailboat, his resourcefulness knows no bounds. Along the way, he discovers that the greatest riches of travel aren't measured in currency, but in the extraordinary people you meet and the experiences that money simply can't buy. This is armchair travel with a difference—a humorous, heartwarming reminder that adventure is accessible to anyone with determination and an open mind.
