Mid-Life Crisis on Wheels: a bicycle journey around the world - E-book - ePub

Cutting-edge computer systems designer. Crisis project manager. Consultant to the Fortune 100. Utter workaholic. Before he became a writer, M. L. "Matt" Buchman had dreamed of traveling the world by sailboat or small plane. Not once did he think about doing it by bicycle - not until he lost everything: career, house he'd been remodeling for the family he never had time to find, sense of self, all of it.
Broke and burned out at thirty-five, he sold everything, climbed on his bicycle Junior, and together they headed out on a journey of unknown duration. His one guide? Following the setting sun west.11, 000 miles through eighteen countries. A voyage of adventure, discovery, and rebuilding a life. But mostly? A journey of discovering hope and the unexpected possibilities of the future.
