GENRE:

Non-Fiction Humorous Memoir 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 BLURB:

Book 4 of an original and hilarious book 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 them.

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 COVID hysteria in the early

part of this decade.

From how to negotiate traffic in Los Angeles when your car can only drive at 5 miles/hr, to what

to do when locked out of your hotel room in your underwear, to the emotions of attempting the

world’s second highest bungee when you have a pathological fear of heights, to how to deal

with the trials and tribulations of staying in a youth hostel with travelers who have no respect for

the other guests.

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 empty your bank account, get

squeezed sitting in a middle airline seat, or deal with border security at the Ukraine/Russia

boundary.

EXCERPT:

I stagger out of bed. I am barely able to stand. It is not the effects of the alcohol in my system,

but the ungodly bodily confusion of being abruptly woken from a rapidly achieved deep sleep.

The decline in physical coordination is no different than pounding six whiskey shots with beer

chasers over a two-hour period and then waking up the next morning with a massive hangover

after passing out in a large coil of rope in the parking lot of a casino.

My mind swirls fretfully with questions. Is it Con? But why would he be pounding on the door if

he has a room key? Was the self-serve burrito from 7-11 that far past its due date that he got

Salmonella and lost his mind?

Was it hotel security coming to notify me they found my wallet on the floor of the front lobby?

Surely they would be more discreet at 1 am than to take to my room door like they were Seal

Team 6 bursting in on Osama bin Laden.

Was it Jack the Ripper?

Of the three possibilities, the final one seemed to be the most probable as I stumbled across my

hotel room in my underpants.

I pull open the door to reveal a completely naked man standing in the hallway outside.

Sweet mother of God!

That was not one of my three options.

AUTHOR:

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.
