Adventure is a state of mind. An addiction to the unexpected, the unknown, freedom, and risk. It's Steve McQueen driving his speeding bullets during the shooting of Le Mans; Dian Fossey with her gorillas in Rwanda; Lawrence of Arabia fascinated by the Jordanian desert; Dennis Hopper and Peter Fonda crossing New Mexico on their Harleys; and Harry Potter at Hogwarts. In this book, Francisca Matteoli follows the paths of these adventurers and brings their legendary films to life, connecting each narrative with an unusual hotel. A unique and personal guidebook, full of anecdotes, information, and souvenirs.
Francisca Matteoli is an amazing and beautiful woman who knows how to tell a good story. An original and exciting book, written with verve and humour. Traveling with Francisca is like traveling with your best friend !
