A spirited work of travel writing, The Long Way Home: 'Nobody Goes That Way' chronicles Australian adventurer Lydia Laube's audacious journey through some of the world's most remote and rarely visited corners, taking the roads less travelled — and often the roads no one travels at all. With characteristic wit and fearless curiosity, Laube details the misadventures, cultural encounters, and logistical chaos that define overland travel through challenging terrain, painting a vivid portrait of the world beyond the tourist trail. Her narrative voice is warm, self-deprecating, and irrepressibly humorous, turning every bureaucratic obstacle and missed connection into comic gold. The result is an engaging and inspiring account that illustrates just how rewarding — and gloriously unpredictable — independent travel can be for those willing to ignore the well-worn path.
