Book Description
Straight-talking, down-to-earth and totally irreverent, NO SHITTING IN THE TOILET examines cheap travel with clear eyes and hard realism. Based on the 1996 Travel Website of the Year (Net Magazine) NSITT is a celebration of all that's perverse about travel. It's about getting stranded and ripped off. It's about sitting in a tiny room counting cockroaches and feeling sorry for yourself. It's about being totally clueless, hopeless and pathetic... and loving every minute of it!In the four years since the original NSITT took the backpacker world by storm, many changes have revolutionised the travel experience - the internet and the trend towards short-break holidays being the most significant. The plummeting value of the dollar means more and more holiday-makers are venturing even further off the beaten track in search of affordable holidays - and thus deeper into the territory of NSITT, 'where you're more likely to find a cockroach on your pillow than a complimentary mint'. The three new chapters will keep Peter's fans - original groupies and new recruits alike - well-informed on all aspects of backpacker travel. Peter shares his secrets with chapters like- "Top 10 horrific bus rides", "Top 10 big nights out" and "Top 10 travel ailments". NSITT is the perfect antidote to vaseline-lensed accounts of travel. Peter fixes a clear and unromantic eye on the backpacker experience and tells it like it really is - and how we all (ultimately) love it to be! After all, who dines out on smooth-sailing experiences? It's the disasters that get the laughs - and create the memories.
