About this listen
The inspiring memoir from TV traveller Simon Reeve's life of amazing adventures in over 120 countries and the most remote and extreme corners of the planet.
TV documentary maker Simon Reeve has dodged bullets on frontlines, hunted with the Bushmen of the Kalahari, dived with manta rays, seals and sharks, survived malaria, walked through minefields, tracked lions on foot, been taught to fish by the President of Moldova, and detained for spying by the KGB. After a decade spent making more than 80 programmes he has become a familiar face on British TV, well known for his extraordinary journeys across jungles, deserts, mountains and oceans, and to some of the most beautiful, dangerous and remote regions of the world. But what most people don't know is that Simon's own journey started in a rough area of Acton, West London where he was brought up and left school with no qualifications. For the first time he will tell his life story with an audiobook rich in anecdotes to entertain and inform listeners about some of the most fascinating (and often dangerous) places in the world and what it took to reach them.

"I couldn't put it down, literally couldn't put it down....A cracking autobiography. It's so diverse, it's beautifully written. It's a real page-turner....The best autobiography of anyone under 50 I've ever read." (Chris Evans, BBC Radio 2)

Fantastic. Loved it
Absolutely loved this book. Had me hooked from the beginning. It was beautifully written and a reminder of the privileged life most of us take for granted. So look forward to your next book. Thank you

Started slowly but by the end it was amazing
This book started slowly. The author spent the first few chapters outlining his troubled childhood. Hang on, I thought. Unwanted a travel book, not a biography. But soon the story morphed into adulthood and the pieces began to fit. Within another chapter or two I was riveted, and found each story ever more fascinating. Try it and stick with it and I’m sure you will love it too.

Love this deep delve into Simons life
I have watched many of Simons documentaries over the years so was surprised to listen to his full life story. Overcoming the adversity in his childhood made his success all the more inspiring. His ability to see & listen to the people he meets without judgement is endearing & so educational. Loved this book to bits. Would recommend to all who want to learn more about the world (past the standard Insta posts!)

impactful
A great narration of a great book about an awe inspiring life, touching on the beauty as well the suffering in the world. As human as it gets. I found the book to start slow but was well worth hanging in there. The experiences shared were touching, entertaining, informative, eye opening, at times shocking, heart breaking, other times funny and uplifting, over all deeply moving. This book is a worthy adventure to expose yourself to, to learn much more about the world and humanity, delivered with empathy, tact and genuine authenticity.
