Somewhere Else: Random Travels on this Small PlanetM (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780991346042)

Merri Melde has spent over two cumulative years of her life traveling, answering to an inexplicable need to see the world, to experience different adventures, cultures, people and places.

Taken from her travel journals, Somewhere Else features some of her backpack travels in
Nepal, where she trekked the Annapurna Circuit; India, where exceptional highs and vexing lows included visiting the most incredible Taj Mahal, riding camels in the Rajasthan desert, and enduring a most entertaining 889-mile second class unreserved train ride from Bombay to Cochin; Zimbabwe, where she survived a day of white-water rafting and a 3-day canoe trip down the Zambezi River among hippos and crocodiles; Scotland, where a leisurely tour through the outer Isles slowed time down; and Northern Ireland, where dodging bombs and ignoring tanks in the streets was a way of life and The Troubles consumed her thoughts.

Told with frankness and humor - and sometimes a lack of it - Somewhere Else gives readers just a glimpse of other beautiful countries, intriguing people, and uncommon adventures in spellbinding places around the planet.
