It's weird, wild, and other-worldly out there.

In this second collection from a relentlessly inquisitive traveler, the world is not a backdrop-it's an odd, unpredictable, often ephemeral, and sometimes hilarious force. A simple trip becomes something else entirely when plans unravel, cultures collide, and the unexpected takes over.

With sharp wit and a reporter's eye for detail, these essays plunge you into moments most travelers avoid-and reveal why those are often the ones worth having.

This is travel at its most alive: unscripted, unsanitized, and impossible to forget.

And sometimes, it starts with a message you never expected: Your crocodile has arrived.
