Amazing Boat Journeys
Ordinær pris 319,00 krExperience 60 of the world's greatest adventures on water - from sailing the Nile by felucca and cruising the Canadian Arctic, to exploring Pitcairn Island by cargo ship. With detailed accounts of each route, beautiful photos and practical tips on how to plan your own voyage, Amazing Boat Journeys will help you discover a more rewarding way of travelling. From the seafaring Polynesians to the Chinese Age of Discovery, travel by water shaped the world.
That same spirit of exploration compels Lonely Planet writers today to travel by cargo freighter and fishing vessel to the world's most remote islands; to hop onto mailboats in the Bahamas; or to experience life on a historic sail-powered windjammer. These journeys are eclectic and wide-ranging, from the wonder of a glass-bottomed boat ride through Florida springs to the ease of a thatch-roofed kettuvallam exploring Kerala's famed backwaters. Old-fashioned paddle-steamers ply the length of the Mississippi in the style of the 1800s, and cruise ships on the Yangtze feature enthusiastic karaoke in Mandarin.
Off-the-beaten-path cruises include Antarctica and Papua New Guinea. On the opposite end of the spectrum from a weeks-long journey over open seas is the charm of seeing a city from the water, whether crossing Victoria Harbour via Hong Kong's classic Star Ferry, viewing the banks of London from the Thames, or traversing Bangkok on the Chao Phraya River. Each trip includes authoritative commentary, awe-inspiring photography, and details of life on board the vessel, similar routes, and how to make the trip happen.

Ordinær pris 399,00 kr Salgspris 239,00 kr Spar 40%Bobil. Opplevelser for livet er en inspirasjonsbok for deg som er ny eller litt nysgjerrig på livet i bobil.
Frihet er selve nøkkelordet når det gjelder bobildrømmen. Med en bobil har du opplevelser for livet alltid tilgjengelig. Med bobil har du en base til å gjøre utrolig mye forskjellig – nesten hvor som helst.
Boken utforsker bobillivets utrolig mange sider og muligheter. Gjennom forfatterens personlige erfaringer, og kunnskap fra eksperter, får du vite alt du trenger for å lykkes med turen.
Velsvik forteller også hvorfor bilen har blitt en stor kilde til livsglede. Og på en humoristisk måte avsløres familiens mange tabber, slik at du slipper å gjøre dem selv. For hvordan overlever man egentlig på liten plass, med masse gass og en trillekoffert-do? Og må det være dyrt?
Vi har hatt bobil siden 2014, og brukt den året rundt. Vi har gått fra å være bare to til å bli en familie på fire. I løpet av alle disse årene og turene har vi lært en hel haug med triks for å kunne ha så mange og så bra turer som mulig. Mange ting er lært på den harde måten, gjennom gasslekkasjer og oppskrapte vinduer, bulker og uenigheter. Jeg har samlet alle triksene til deg, slik at du ikke trenger å gå på de samme smellene, forteller forfatter og journalist Stine Mari Velsvik.
I boken får du blant annet:
- Skreddersydde oppskrifter til skikkelig god turmat
- Pakketips

Boka om verden
Ordinær pris 279,00 krHvordan kom vi fra ingenting til den verden vi bor i nå, med rekkehus, fotballbaner, edderkopper og matpakker? Boka om verden prøver å gi oss svar. Den forteller om The Big Bang, om sola og stjernene, og om atomene alt er laget av. Du får høre om det første livet som oppsto og gjennom millioner av år utviklet seg og ble gresstrå, rødbeter, fugler og deg og meg. Alt dette og mye mer er enkelt og morsomt forklart gjennom korte kapitler og illustrasjoner. Humoristisk, spennende og lærerikt for nysgjerrige fra 10-99.

Bolivia og folket som tok framtida tilbake
Ordinær pris 379,00 krDå den karismatiske Evo Morales vann presidentvalet i Bolivia i 2005, vekte det internasjonal oppsikt. Med radikale reformer skulle det sosialistiske partiet Movimiento al Socialismo (MAS) ta eit oppgjer med 500 år kolonialisme.
Sidan den gong har fattigdomen blitt halvert, og ein velferdsstat har sett dagens ljos. Men då Morales i 2020 stilte til val for tredje gong, i strid med grunnlova, blei det bråk. Høgresida kuppa makta, og det vart kampar i gatene. Etter eit år med uro, vart det endelig halde eit nytt, demokratisk val. Med ein ny presidentkandidat vann MAS makta tilbake.
Latin-Amerika-kjennaren Heidi Lundeberg gir oss historia om dei mange omveltingane Bolivia har gått gjennom. Me får møte Martha, som har fått stipend for å bli lege, Rosmery, som har fått innlagt vatn og straum, og Alberto, som har fått lønna si femdobla sidan MAS kom til makta.
No står Bolivia igjen ved eit vegskilje. Vil sosialistregjeringa lykkast med å redusere ulikskapane samstundes som dei møter forventingane til ei veksande middelklasse? Vil forsøket på industrireising lykkast? Og er det i Andes me kan finne inspirasjon til ei grønare og meir rettvis framtid?
