Ian Fleming’s world travels and interests, as well as his journalism and wartime experiences, lent authority to everything he wrote. In 1959, the Sunday Times commissioned Fleming to write a series of dispatches from the world’s most beguiling locales. The result was Thrilling Cities, a masterpiece of well-observed travelogue that stands ably alongside the author’s Bond canon. From Hong Kong to Honolulu, New York to Naples, he left the bright main streets for the back alleys, abandoning tourist sites in favor of underground haunts, and mingling with celebrities, gangsters and geishas.

So, you’re curious about living the dream as a nude digital nomad, huh? Well, buckle up (or should I say unbuckle?) because you’re in for the adventure of a lifetime! Let me tell you, there’s nothing quite like the freedom of working remotely with your bare butt out and about while exploring the world. Picture this: you’re lounging on a secluded beach in Greece, laptop in hand, the sun warming every inch of your skin without a pesky waistband digging into your stomach. That’s right, not a single piece of clothing to hold you back or cramp your style. Sounds pretty fabulous, right?...

Ernest Hemingways berühmtes Zitat „Es gibt eine amerikanische Literatur vor Mark Twain und eine danach, denn nichts was davor da war noch etwas was danach kommt ist damit vergleichbar“ wird durch die Unterwegs und Daheim-Reihe wunderbar bestätigt.

What does an overweight, 69 year old man do, when confronted with a challenge to his comfortable, retired, gentle ‘sailing into the setting-sun’ lifestyle? He picks up his bag and goes for a walk. A 800 kilometre walk across the north of Spain, from St. Jean Pied de Port in the French Pyrenees to Santiago de Compostela in Galicia. The Camino Frances. This isn’t a travelogue or a guide. It’s the story of a long forgotten youthful dream that refused to die. There’s no seeking of answers, no seeking of self or God.

Orths Reise macht das Leben vor Ort greifbarer. Bestsellerautor Stephan Orth hat den Krieg Russlands gegen die Ukraine von Anbeginn intensiv miterlebt. Durch seine ukrainische Freundin Julija verbindet ihn ein besonderes Band mit dem Land. Wie geht es den Menschen, die geblieben sind? Wie sieht ihr Alltag aus, was gibt ihnen Hoffnung?

Er wohnt bei Einheimischen, hört ihre Geschichten, ist beeindruckt von ihrem Mut und Lebenswillen – und packt selbst beim Wiederaufbau mit an.
