"None of it was meant to be: the stories and anecdotes that appear in this book, my travels to far-flung other worlds, being face-to-face with hundreds of strangers. Yet here we are, and there I've been, and somehow, strangers became friends." From the IntroductionMeet Tom Mattson's friends including Maribel, on a park bench in Havana; Braulio, a silver miner in Bolivia; Chema, a Guatemalan fisherman --- and dozens more around the world. Discover the stories of their lives, their experiences, and their histories, so different from your own. Be charmed by the Minnesota storyteller who draws you into The Other Worlds with ease and who delights in sharing the sights, sounds, smells, and serendipities of his adventures with armchair - and active - travelers everywhere.
Join Tom Mattson, the Minnesota storyteller on his next round of adventures from Peru to Guatemala, from Thailand to Myanmar, a journey in Africa and motorcycle trips across the American Southwest and Canada. Each story draws you into the day-to-day lives of local people in some of the world's most beautiful and remote places. Meeting Strangers, Making Friends will open your eyes to the joys of immersion experience travel and will likely have you looking for your own curiosity based excursions. When you can't travel, let Tom take you on adventures through this book and his first book, The Other Worlds. Or watch video clips of his travels and learn more at TomsGlobe.com.
