About this ebook
Every year, thousands of young people pack a rucksack and go off for a few months of backpacking through Europe, staying at youth hostels and trying to get in as much travel and experience as their meagre budgets allow.
I never did.
Now, twenty years later, I'd make that trip.
The result is Running Late: A high-speed romp around Europe in which I set out in my 40s to do the backpacking trip I never quite managed in my 20s.
It's a fast-paced, get-away-from-it-all tour through 30 destinations in 16 countries.
