Å reise kan gi oss sterke inntrykk og fantastiske opplevelser, men for mange kan klimaavtrykket og de negative konsekvensene fra reisene våre også gi et snev av dårlig samvittighet.

Som enkeltmennesker er det å fly langt og ofte blant det aller verste vi gjør for klimaet. I en tid der isbreer smelter, havnivået stiger og ekstremværet blir stadig villere, kan vi ikke fortsette å reise på den måten vi gjør det i dag.

Innsiktsfullt og med stort engasjement forklarer Trygve Sunde Kolderup hvordan vi kan reise mer skånsomt og klimavennlig. Gjennom inspirerende eksempler viser han hva vi bør tenke på når vi planlegger våre neste turer - enten det er i jobb- eller feriesammenheng. Vi skal ikke slutte å reise, men vi må endre måten vi reiser på. For hvis vi reiser bedre, er det mulig å få store opplevelser med mindre avtrykk.

A blend of travel writing, memoir, history and current affairs that tells the story of Sri Lanka. A perfect read for first-time visitors, Sri Lankans abroad or at home, or anyone looking to deepen their understanding of one of the world’s most fascinating and paradoxical countries. Razeen Sally was born to a Sri Lankan Muslim father and a Welsh mother.

Just before his teens, a political conflict tore his family apart and he left Sri Lanka, barely going back for thirty years. When he finally returned ‘home’, he spent much of the next decade crisscrossing the island, trying to understand this paradoxical place. Blessed with nature’s bounty and an easy, pleasure-loving people, it was nevertheless scarred by ethnic conflict and the violence of civil war.

As a native and a tourist, Sally makes an ideal guide to Sri Lanka’s past and present. He won’t tell you which restaurant has the best reviews or the price of a hotel room. Instead, he will accompany you like a learned friend, sharing his journeys, pointing out the unmissable gems beyond the obvious spots, and unpacking the nation’s culture and history.

Insightful, intimate and moving, Return to Sri Lanka is an indispensable book, whether you're already familiar with this spectacular country, or planning your first visit.

This comprehensive guidebook to EuroVelo route 15 offers a detailed stage-by-stage description of the 1370km route along the Rhine, one of Europe's great rivers, passing through six countries on its way from Switzerland to the North Sea. The cycling is easy, downhill and along dedicated cycle lanes, the countries visited are very cycle-friendly and the waymarking is excellent. The whole trip can be completed in two weeks by a fit cyclist.

The guide includes plenty of information to help you plan your trip, with advice on travel, accommodation and facilities.

Starting in the Swiss Alps with high mountains, deep glacial valleys and gorges, it soon reaches Europe's third largest lake, the Bodensee, and its greatest mainland waterfall. After Basel, the Rhine becomes a broad river, now the world's busiest river trading artery. The middle Rhine, between Bingen and Koblenz, forces its way through the narrow rocky Rhine gorge, lined by romantic castles perched above Germany's finest vineyards.
