This time of the year, many people are beginning to make travel plans for the spring and summer. I read travel guides written about specific countries, but I also like to read travel writing to discover not only where people have gone but what they did once they got there.
Children’s author, Rita Golden Gelman, decided over twenty years ago to travel to across the world like a nomad, living with the people she meets in the various countries she visits, which only enhances her knowledge of the area. She discusses her travels in the book Tales of a Female Nomad: Living at Large in the World.
You may not want to travel like Rita has done but it is an interesting book. She also has a website http://www.ritagoldengelman.com/ which gives more information not only about Rita, her activities and her current travels but also links to others who have done the same.
