Book 1 of a hilarious series of travel misadventures and dubious personal introspection by Australian author Simon Yeats, who from an early age learned that the best way to approach the misfortunes of this world is to laugh about it.

​Simon shares his comedic insights into the unusual and uproarious elements of living life as an Aussie ex-pat and having a sense of Wanderlust as pervasive as the Spanish Flu in 1918.

​From how to keep yourself entertained when unwittingly forced to watch 11 hours of live sumo wrestling in Japan, to surviving heartbreak in India at the hands of a French flight attendant, to 48 hours spent in Nepal that qualify as the funniest most gut wrenching travel experience since Captain Bligh was set adrift in the Pacific, to his unsuccessful attempts at avoiding going to a brothel in Thailand.

​Simon Yeats has gone into the world and experienced all the out of the ordinary moments for you to sit back and enjoy the experience without the need to break a leg or rupture a pancreas.

Whether or not a horror novel is scary enough; a thriller exciting enough; a romance romantic enough; a 'funny book witty enough, its all subjective, humour perhaps most of all, right? 

Sooo, speaking for myself ...

Whilst not altogether uproarious I did find How to Start a Riot in a Brothel in Thailand By Ordering A Beer And Other Lesser Known Travel Tips {what a great title} an amusing enough read in which the author's sense of humour and love of travel shone through. That at times they bought into racial stereotypes ... Hmm! Personally speaking, not something that I personally found funny but hey-ho.

Covering some twenty seven years of misadventure, a travel memoir with a difference. The author revels in poking fun at himself in any number of cautionary tales in which I found myself chuckling, wondering just how they got away with some of the things they did.

Part one in a planned series of three book. I wonder what adventures await Yeats as he once again travels the globe.

Simon Yeats has lived nine lives, and by all estimations, is fast running out of the number he has left. His life of globetrotting the globe was not the one he expected to lead. He grew up a quiet, shy boy teased by other kids on the playgrounds for his red hair. But he developed a keen wit and sense of humor to always see the funnier side of life.

With an overwhelming love of travel, a propensity to find trouble where there was none, and being a passionate advocate of mental health, Simon’s stories will leave a reader either rolling on the floor in tears of laughter, or breathing deeply that the adventures he has led were survived.

​No author has laughed longer or cried with less restraint at the travails of life.
