After more than 35 years of treading the work-wheel, author Irene and her husband Rick defied routine and took to the highways of the world for a year. The craving to go beyond their borders and saturate their senses with other cultures was realized as they experienced the wonders and joys of new lands: a sky-burial in Tibet; a toe-dipping in the Danube; a charging Yak while climbing to Mt. Everest base camp; a gun-point encounter at the Polish border; a peaceful contemplation of the perfect lines of Michelangelo's David and many others.
