Pre-pandemic, I hiked the Camino de Santiago. It was a 500 mile journey, and the people, the sights, and the journey were all breathtaking. William Spencer's journey from England to India on bicycle in the 1970s brings back nostalgic memories of my own experiences on the camino. If you're feeling the urge to travel, do yourself a favor and grab a copy of Far Sweeter than Honey!

I thoroughly enjoyed this epic bike ride from England to India. The author beautifully described his experiences with the people and places along the way. I was especially interested in the hospitality and kindness he was shown - often staying with complete strangers for several nights - as well as his ability to adapt to any situation and survive some bizarre and frightening experiences. This is definitely going in my "read again" pile.
