I love travel memoirs, I love reading about cultures and real life adventures.
If anyone has recommendations about their favorites I'd love suggestions!

DebinHawaii These are two foodie ones I really enjoyed. (An Embarrassment of Mangoes is a favorite on mine too.)

While not as funny as Pole to Pole or Around The World in 80 Days, this is a worthy addition to the "Michael Palin travelogue" oeuvre. I read it as a follow up to Into Thin Air. (Weirdly, Palin arrives at a memorial at Annapurna for one of the main climbers who survived the '96 Everest season.). The book chronicles his journey across the mountain range from Pakistan to Bangladesh. I definitely want a summer hut and a yak in Bhutan.
