Tuscan Sunburn
I'm so tired of going to the bookstore and wafting through the millions of .* Tuscan[y] .* books to find a *real* travel book. It's ridiculous. You've got your Under The Tuscan Sun, which I guess started all this. Then there's A Tuscan This and A Tuscan That, etc. The local Borders has 10 copies of them all. Real people don't want to go to Tuscany, they want to go to Bolivia or Mongolia or Japan. Maybe Antarctica. After a needle-in-the-haystack search, I landed the other Redmond O'Hanlon book I haven't read yet, Into the Heart Of Borneo. Perfect for a trip to the armpit of America. I read his other book, In Trouble Again a few months ago. Maybe they should divide the travel section into "Tourist" and "Traveller" sections so I can find these things easier.

I am sorry Mr. D, but as a lover of travel, a TRUE traveler finds beauty in ALL places- Not just the road less taken. I am a *real* person, and adore finding the perfect pistachio macaroon in an obscure bakery Paris just as much as hiking the Inca trail.
Then we agree? A TRUE traveler finds beauty in ALL places, not just London, Paris, and Rome.
