The Fixer and The Chef: My Adventures With and Without Anthony Bourdain (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

I met Tony Bourdain in 2001, in Saint Petersburg, Russia, filming an episode of "A Cook's Tour." From that day on, we were comrades in search of new emotions and experiences greater than ourselves. In 2011, he told me to write my story. It took me 14 years to look back, to filter my life through the lens of our 17-year friendship. Tony showed me the way out of my cage, from the weight of being Soviet-born to becoming a citizen of the world. I had the honor of being his travel companion for 10 TV episodes - across time zones, across different tables, riding trains, dilapidated cars, and horse carts, from cold to heat, sunshine to rain and back again.

.

It wasn't about the screen time. It was about the ride. This is my story: the highs, the lows, the unknown uncovered. Even now, when the book is written, I feel I'm still searching for meaning, for forgiveness, maybe even redemption. But the show must go on. Tony's light is still out there, and I carry a flicker of it.

About the Author

Zamir's journey is a testament to the transformative power of creativity - a journey that has seen him evolve from being a teacher of English to becoming "an international man of mystery ". Thanks to Anthony Bourdain's influence and encouragement Zamir started to produce his own documentary films and launched a "Zamir Vodka" limited batch which helps him to initiate a conversation with people he meets during his travels. Gotta Travel project has become Zamir's passion (and a part and continuation of his peacemaking mission) - he accompanies " hungry travelers" to explore "parts unknown" around the world. He is also actively involved in charity events raising awareness for suicide prevention.
