Description
Eastern Horizons: A Journey Along the Silk Road At just 22 years old, Levison Wood embarked on an epic journey from England to India through Russia, Iran, Afghanistan and Pakistan. With a shoestring budget of £750, he set out to explore the Caucasus region and meet its people. This true traveller's tale is populated by a cast of eccentric characters, including mujahideen fighters and Russian mafia members. Wood's journey was driven by a fascination with the history of exploration and a desire to experience life in these often-overlooked countries. Along the way, he encountered both great hospitality and hostility, meeting people who welcomed him with open arms and those who would have liked nothing more than to see him gone. A gripping account of one man's adventure, Eastern Horizons is a story of cultural exchange, danger, and self-discovery.
