This book is for all the unconventional dreamers out there! I loved the way Scott takes you on the journey of his upbringing and how it shaped the way he explores life. What an inspirational book whether you want to simplify your current life to make room for happiness or you want to sell your belongings and embark on a lifelong adventure. I simply couldn't put it down!
