    Ever since he can remember, Dom Joly has been fascinated by travel to odd places. In part this stems from a childhood spent in war-torn Lebanon, where instead of swapping marbles in the schoolyard, he had a shrapnel collection -- the schoolboy currency of Beirut. These early experiences left Dom with a profound loathing for the sanitized experiences of the modern-day travel industry and a taste for the darkest of places.
    "What a great laugh!"

    Story

    I download books to listen to as I graden or go on a walk. Inveriably I choose thrillers but chose this one for a change. I got some strange looks from people as I laughed out loud at many sections of this audio book. Dom Jolly narates it himself and the narrative is excellent and hugely entertaining.
    I will listen to it again soon just to cheer myself up. I ended up listening to this on speaker whilst painting my hall as all of my teenage sons wanted to listen to it too. It's quite educational too.
    Would recommend to anyone!
