THE BOOK OF INDEPENDENCE: It's not about what you'll do after you retire, it's about what you do before you die.

"I'll never forget that Monday when I put the barrel of a gun to my head and fired until I was out of bullets, without stopping to think of what I was doing so I wouldn't have a chance to change my mind. It was my resignation to a future which I already knew, a farewell to a secure job, an adieu to a brilliant career in advertising, the microcosm where I had lived for the last twelve long years. It was ten minutes after ten in the morning and my last words were, more or less 'keep the corpse, I'm leaving.' My body collapsed and I walked out the door."

This overland autobiography will leave you laughing aloud, inspiring you to get out and experience another part of the world, one that is well outside your comfort level.

They're intent on completing their round the world trip in 10 years and, possibly, to invent whatever excuse afterwards to remain in motion.
Lonely Planet Magazine

They've lived through everything... from elephant attacks provoked by getting too close to a herd with calves to getting shot at in Ethiopia.
TVE, Spanish Television daily news

The book is hard to put down. Pablo's writing somehow manages to intimately connect the reader to these far away unfamiliar places with their diverse landscapes and cultures. If you love adventure, travel and delving into the human spirit found in far away cultures 'The Book of Independence' is a must read.
Bryon Dorr, Exploring Elements

I loved this book. Pablo has such a unique writing style, and my, what an adventure Highly recommended for all the dreamers out there.

Pablo Rey was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina. He arrived in Madrid in 1992, when Spain was in the midst of another bad recession. In 1996 he moved to Barcelona and in 2000 he rented his mortgaged apartment and moved into a 4wd van with Anna Callau, his partner in adventures. The goal: to drive around the world through Southern Europe, the Middle East, Africa from north to south, America from south to north, and back to Barcelona via Vladivostok to Finisterre. He has written articles for Overland Journal and Lonely Planet Magazine and has published three books in Spanish about his overland trips. Pablo has won more than 20 awards as a creative advertising writer, is a former illegal immigrant, an antique bottle hunter in ghost towns and one of many Argentinians from Barcelona, or Spaniards from Buenos Aires, with a leg in many continents. Pablo and Anna still live on the road.
