Cómo viajar low cost
by Barbara Riedel Marta Aguilar«¿Por qué pienso que puedo aconsejarte sobre viajes de bajo presupuesto? Antes de comenzar mi gran viaje, disponía de menos de 7 000 euros, aunque los billetes de avión ya estaban pagados y durante mi viaje pude ir ganando algunos euros más. Si añadimos el coste del Round the World Ticket, en ocho meses gasté exactamente unos 8 050 , todo incluído. En principio, se podría viajar incluso con menos presupuesto. En mi caso, no obstante, he de afirmar que estuve en continuo movimiento, hice algunas excursiones, vi una cantidad increíble de lugares y viví experiencias inolvidables. Visité cuatro continentes y trece países. Solo en América del Sur, recorrí 20 000 km en autocares de larga distancia. Cómo viajar low cost es un libro que completa Mi vuelta al mundo: un sueño hecho realidad, un libro que relata el lado emocional y describe los altibajos de mi viaje por el mundo. Cuenta cómo soy, cuáles fueron mis experiencias y cómo afronté las distintas situaciones que --quizá también-- me transformaron en la persona que soy hoy. Si bien mi otro libro refleja de la forma más honesta mis experiencias y sentimientos, permitiendo al lector asomarse a lo más profundo de mi ser y mi alma, el libro que tienes en tus manos es una fuente de datos objetivos: Información, trucos y consejos para viajar con poco dinero». Cómo viajar low cost es un compendio de consejos para todos aquellos que quieran viajar con poco dinero. Encontrarás trucos y consejos para ahorrar en los siguientes aspectos de tu viaje: - Desplazamientos - Alojamiento - Comida - Gestión del tiempo libre Cómo viajar low cost es un libro para todos aquellos que quieran hacer una escapada larga o un viaje alrededor del mundo pero piensan que no pueden permitírselo.

Cómo viajar sin ver
by Andrés NeumanUn cruce entre la narrativa más actual y la crónica relámpago. Una visión literaria, al vuelo, de la geografía entera de la lengua. Reflexionando sobre el escaso tiempo previsto para recorrer cada país con el Premio Alfaguara, el autor se pregunta si hoy nuestros viajes consisten sobre todo en no ver. «¿Estaré por experimentar una hipérbole del turismo contemporáneo?», escribe. Pero el ritmo radical de su periplo está a punto de brindarle una oportunidad única: comparar todas las capitales latinoamericanas en una misma ráfaga. Andrés Neuman nos propone un recorrido vertiginoso por 19 países, interpretados por un ojo poético y político. Los presuntos no-lugares (aeropuertos, hoteles, taxis) quedan así convertidos en poderosos espacios de conflicto. Explorando con agudeza los dilemas de la identidad nacional y las contradicciones de la globalización, Cómo viajar sin ver es un diario innovador y divertido que experimentacon las formas de nuestro tiempo. Y que le toma el pulso a la vida cultural del continente, abordando no solamente a sus clásicos sino también a las nuevas generaciones de creadores. Un libro esencial para cualquier persona interesada en la historia, la actualidad y el futuro de Latinoamérica. Una manera distinta de pensar nuestra cultura cambiante y el sentido del viaje. Críticas:«A partir de ahora, todo viajero curioso que recorra Latinoamérica debería llevar consigo este libro portátil, apasionante y verdadero, de alguien que sabe oír y mirar sin prejuicios, con la lucidez que le proporciona su visión generosa.» Fernando Valls, Ínsula «Una obra estupenda. [...] Una América tan compleja, tan variada [...] que el lector piensa que no hay ficción capaz de competir con una realidad que parece albergarla.»José María Pozuelo Yvancos, ABC «En El viajero del siglo, por el que ha recibido el Premio de la Crítica, Neuman revisitaba la novela del siglo XIX, el viaje de ida; y del resultado de su gira ha nacido una narración del XXI: una antítesis, una cara B.»Ulises Fuentes, La Razón «Un libro de chispazos que no está edificado sobre la frivolidad o la brillantez visual, sino sobre la perspicacia de la mirada. Neuman tiene unas gafas que son sólo suyas, y a través de ellas miramos.»Luisgé Martín, Gente «Los fogonazos de Neuman iluminan Latinoamérica. El escritor radiografía la diversidad del continente.»Paula Corroto, Público «Su aguda percepción se renueva en cada aterrizaje. Aflora la magia viajera del autor, la calidad de un escritor como Andrés Neuman.»Gabriel Cetkovich, Clarín (Argentina) «Un conjunto de instantáneas divertidas, fugaces, conmovidas y conmovedoras, deslumbrantes destellos de una pluma privilegiada.»Guillermo Roz, Periodista Digital «Una virtuosa demostración de escritura al vuelo. Altamente observador, Neuman se concentra en cada instante y captura pequeños detalles que a otros escritores se les habrían escapado [...] Un vertiginoso retrato de Latinoamérica en todas sus miserias y glorias.»Kirkus Reviews (EE. UU.) «No se trata de una literatura de viajes convencional, y sin embargo el libro funciona. Eso es gracias al ojo de Neuman para el absurdo y la ironía. Más importante aún es su talento para lo sucinto. Lugares y personas quedan capturados en una sola, atinada frase [...]. Pese a los kilómetros que recorre, se regocija en la quietud, ya que su gran pasión es la lectura.»Oliver Balch, The Spectator (Reino Unido)
Côte d'Azur - Nice and surroundings: Spend a relaxing weekend on the Côte d'Azur - you don't have to worry about anything.
by Katrin KatrinYou know the story: you have a long weekend coming up and you'd like to go somewhere. You book a city trip to Nice, but you don't have any time to prepare, to read a travel guide and search the Internet and think about what you’d like to see, where you should eat, and what you'd like to do. And then suddenly it's time to go and you think: what now? Here’s where I’d like to pick you up and provide you with some instructions that will give you an overview of the Côte d'Azur. A normal travel guide includes so many things and then you aren't familiar with the distances and you can’t estimate well, and in the end you have the feeling that you’ve missed a few highlights. With my travel guide, I'd like to give you the feeling that you’re visiting me and I’ll show you the area I love. Of course it contains only a selection of things, this area is much too varied to be able to see everything in a weekend. But if you’d like to think after the weekend that you’ve got a good overview and you’d like to come again, then my travel guide will have served its purpose. “Côte d'Azur With All Your Senses - a Weekend in Nice” is a travel guide for a customized tour. You can follow the steps alone and at your own tempo. I'll give you a rough overview of the time. With music recommendations and the repeated suggestion to take your time, breathe, and look, I'd like to make sure that you can get the most out of your vacation. And when you’re back home in your everyday life, the songs should take you back to your vacation for just a moment. Let's get to know the Côte d'Azur together.
D'Iberville and St. Martin
by Dale GreenwellD'Iberville and the community of St. Martin share more than a common origin: from their colonial beginnings they have been one, now separated only by an invisible county line. The first is named after Pierre LeMoyne, Sieur d'Iberville, commander of the French fleet who initiated settlement of Louis XIV's claim to the Mississippi Valley and adjacent coast of the Mexican Gulf in 1699. The latter is named for Raymond St. Martin de Pattier (or Jorquiboey), who married into the pioneer Ladnier family that homesteaded the north side of Biloxi Bay in the late 1700s and were the first landowners when the colonial era ended and the American flag was hoisted in 1811. After statehood in 1817, foreign and American emigrants arrived by ship and covered wagon. Before the Civil War, the families north of the bay included Spanish, Austrian, Italian, and their "African chattel." From this frontier beginning, farmers and fishermen spawned ranching, timber, and seafood industries as well as shipbuilding and mercantile enterprises. By World War II, it was a town, and in 1988 it became a city within the core of this old frontier.

D. H. Lawrence and Italy
by D. H. LawrenceIn these impressions of the Italian countryside, Lawrence transforms ordinary incidents into passages of intense beauty.Twilight in Italy is a vibrant account of Lawrence's stay among the people of Lake Garda, whose decaying lemon gardens bear witness to the twilight of a way of life centuries old. In Sea and Sardina, Lawrence brings to life the vigorous spontaneity of a society as yet untouched by the deadening effect of industrialization. And Etruscan Places is a beautiful and delicate work of literary art, the record of "a dying man drinking from the founts of a civilization dedicated to life."
