Bored in the supermarket one day, Paul wondered how far he could get in 30 days through the goodwill of users of social networking site Twitter. At the mercy of the following rules, he set his sights on New Zealand the opposite point on the planet to his home in Newcastle, England. Rule 1. I can only accept offers of travel and accommodation from people on Twitter. Rule 2. I can't make any travel plans further than three days in advance. Rule 3. I can only spend money on food, drink and anything that fits in my suitcase. Rule 4. If there is more than one offer, I choose. If there is only one, I have to take it within 48 hours. Rule 5. If I am unable to move on from a location within 48 hours, the challenge is over and I go home. In an adventure wrapped in nonsense, he travelled by road, boat, plane and train, slept in five-star luxury and on no-star floors, schmoozed with Hollywood A-listers and was humbled by the generosity of the thousands who followed his journey and determined its course. AUTHOR: Paul Smith is a former Sony award-winning radio producer based in Newcastle. SELLING POINTS: The Twitchhiker project quickly became a worldwide phenomenon, closely followed by online communities and world media including This Morning, Le Monde and The New York Times. The author currently has 10,000 followers on Twitter (@twitchhiker). *
