The book is a compilation of two novellas bound into a single volume. The first novella, titled โ€˜Dear Journey Freewheelingโ€™ is a collection of 25 humorous and turbulent as well as deeply inspiring narratives from the 18-country motorbike expedition.

The same book also contains a second novella called โ€˜Dear Journey Withinโ€™ and depicts the encounters of a gypsy with magical creatures of a forest. Poetic in style and mystic in appeal, the abstract fables of this novella will lead you towards deeper meanings.

An unputdownable study for anyone who has the spirit of the gypsy within may brace themselves for a journey of amazement, magic and introspection with the lucidly scripted book โ€œDear Journey.โ€
