'Ash is a great storyteller, whose book weaves together adventure, big ideas and inspirational tales from around the world. A must for any smart-thinking traveller.' -- Levison Wood ‘What a story! . . . We don’t often hear about the long and rocky road that separates a journalist’s dream from readers and listeners. Why We Travel will inspire and help others who would like to share their passion for discovery. It’s personal, adventurous and shines with your curiosity’ -- Nicholas Crane
