That was excellent. Having just finished reading 'Stopping Places' it was an excellent quick revision of some of the major points to remember. Thank you Damian.

Heard him on the radio and the book is a great read. Hope to see you on the road sometime.

I am reading his book at the moment 'The Stopping Places'. He's a beautiful writer, lyrical and flowing. It's a fascinating read and I have thoroughly enjoyed it. Only one chapter to go. I don't want it to end.

I came to this short video from his article in The Guardian: www.theguardian.com/news/2018/jun/08/gypsy-damian-le-bras-road-traveller-roots Damian Le Bas is clearly an excellent writer, and the article is well worth reading.

Unfortunately this isn't your imaginary dream world and there are lots of things you need to know. Welcome to adulthood where we live in reality.
