Noam:
Jupiter's travels: I thought a long time whether to even let you know of this book's existence because once you read it you are going to want to go get a bike license and ride round the world.
Please wait a few years!. The story of a guy and his trusty Triumph bike and the round the world journey he takes, without cellphones or sponsorship. I actually went out and looked at books about crossing the Sahara on a bike after I read this but luckily it looked rather dangerous. It certainly gives you wunderlust. You remember that I had driven a bike across parts of Europe and that this might be considered the next step, but as you read you will see how skilled he is at getting the machine fixed as it has a tendency (as old British bikes do) to break down all the time.
You should both enjoy this one.
Yoni:
The adventures of Goodnight and Loving. About as fiction as they come without being science fiction!
The adventures of a bored English lawyer as he travels the globe encountering different and interesting people. Well written and very funny, there is a philately tie-in and a Texas tie-in (which you might guess from the title. I can't remember how I found this (you are getting a second-hand copy as it is no longer in print) the author is well known but not for farce comedy such as this. But I loved it from the first few pages and amazingly your mother did too. It probably won't make you want to collect stamps, but there is always a chance!
Enjoy.
