About the book

After the hitchhiking journeys described in the book «Lonesome Streets Blues», the author found his place on Earth in a small Portuguese town. He landed there by responding to an advertisement from an «eccentric artist seeking a partner to run an antique shop and an illegal restaurant.» Ten years later, he finds himself in Portugal again, and the circumstances are even more astonishing than before.


"A few months later, I called one of the protagonists of my memoirs, Joachim, whom I met on the trail to Santiago. After reading a few passages, he asked, 'Daniel, did you have some kind of recorder when you talked to me? Do you have such a good memory? After all, this is repeated word for word!'"


While the majority of events that unfolded after the author's return to Portugal proved to be genuinely unconventional and unexpected, this narrative also reflects the everyday, less thrilling life in the RV, the daily job and family relations. Nevertheless, the unique ability to shape one's life into a novel without embellishment is something extraordinary in today's times, when social media often present a story completely different from the reality. This one shows exactly how it was.
