Sense there's more to travel than meets the eye? 'A Travel Guide to Connection' is your passport to the hidden layers and human stories in every destination - including your own home. Social anthropologist Dr Jonathan Newman shares 12 key pathways to connect with the lives of others and gain a deeper understanding of different points of view. Why do tourists visit ancient cities? Are military arms fairs better holiday destinations? What's the relationship between a traveller and their luggage? Are people strange because of their hats? Can dogs teach humans to smell the world? Who drinks in bad pubs? This unique guidebook suggests hundreds of places to visit, which are rarely revealed by other travel books, and offers over 200 insightful questions to improve your conversations around the globe.
