Long to travel down the Sepick River in a dugout canoe?
Yearn to hike through the Drakensburg Mountains?
Seek the artistic stimulation of the Museo Revoltella?
Crave Badenjan Challaw cooked under a deep blue desert sky?
Don't know what I am going on about?
Read our travel feature and you will.
Bookreporter writer Jana Siciliano reviews four very different books about four very different areas of the world: Afghanistan, New Guinea, South Africa and Trieste, Italy. Each of these books completely immerses the reader in a place, enveloping them in the sights, sounds and smells.
Whether you are packing your bags and heading out the door, or voyaging only in your mind's eye, our travel feature is a treat!
