Welcome to Litsy!

The author recreated Marco Polo‘s trek from the Vatican to Xanadu. His own trek through tyrannical Iran and communist China was likely as perilous as Polo‘s. It‘s an interesting travelogue but not as well written as Bernard Ollivier‘s books about walking the Silk Road. The narrator spoke so softly & fast I had to slow the audiobook down & hike the volume. There also were odd musical interludes that just didn‘t work. #letterX #litsyatoz

I‘ll start this audiobook tomorrow for #litsyatoz #letterX

An adventurous trek. Awesome book.

Had to take a break from everything for a few days due to some emergency at home. And there was a flood scare too. We were lucky to escape from the flood waters but some of our people were not. But no problem. We shall overcome.
