Produktbeschreibung
Intrepid travel writer Peter Moore recently invited the new love of his life a.k.a. the girl next door to join him on a romantic sojourn through Central America. The trip would take them into an area of the world emerging from decades of civil war an area racked with poverty disease and natural disasters. Naturally she jumped at the chance. Over the next six months they battled hurricanes mosquitoes uncooperative border officials and over-sexed Mexican commuters and along the way they learnt rather more about each other than they really wanted to... From Zapatista rebel heartlands in Mexico to a quiet game of cricket in Jamaica from the devastation wrought by Hurricane Mitch in Honduras to breathtaking ancient Mayan sites and perfect golden Caribbean beaches The Full Montezuma chronicles the highs and lows of one couple's journey into the unknown. Written with Moore's wicked sense of humour and his eye for the bizarre and punctuated by a roll call of annoying habits - map-hogging over packing bite-scratching and over-zealous haggling - The Full Montezuma is hilarious incisive and acutely observed a cautionary tale for anyone planning to cross a continent with their significant other.
Autorenporträt
Peter Moore is an itinerant hobo who is lucky enough to be able to support his insatiable travel habit (he has visited 92 countries so far) through writing. He is the author of The Wrong Way Home, The Full Montezuma, Swahili for the Broken-Hearted (shortlisted for the WHSmith People's Choice Travel Book Award), Vroom with a View and the classic alternative travel guide, No Shitting in the Toilet. When he is not on the road, you'll find Peter in either London or Sydney watching 'Neighbours'. Sad, really.
