Meer oor hierdie e-boek
On an epic road trip from Mumbai to London, Badri Baldawa’s granddaughter Nishi asks him about his many adventures. She had joined him on his drive around Iceland where their car broke down and she wondered what other Adventures her Nana must’ve had. When Badri tells her about a terrifying incident from his Kailash-Mansarovar trip 30 years ago, it serves to whet her appetite for his stories. There begins the narration—the life of Badri Baldawa—as told by him, punctuated by the many sights and stops on their 72 days self-drive road trip to London.
Nine-year-old Nishi is the medium through which we explore the events that shaped Badri’s never-back-down philosophy in an unusually exciting life.
“I have enjoyed hearing about many of the other adventures Badri has undertaken and I believe he still has many more to come.” -Allan Mallory
