A very different way of spending a winter..,

This review is from: Where the Indus Is Young: A Winter in Baltisan (Hardcover)
While we were trekking around in Latin America we inherited "Where the Indus Is Young : A Winter in Baltisan" from another backpacker from London. He thought this book would be perfect for us to read, being a mother and daughter "on the road".I gladly accepted a free book, and I initially thought it would be perfect for my daughter (11) to read. She started reading it, but thought it was way too boring so she put it down and refused to pick it up again. ("Where the Indus Is Young : A Winter in Baltisan" couldn't quite compete with Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban [in English] that our friend had brought from Texas to Bogotá especially for her...) I ended up reading "Where the Indus Is Young". This book is a daily journal, from a mother and her daughter spending a winter in Baltisan. I enjoyed reading about all the different people they met on their journey. I could perfectly well relate to their difficulties as a mother/daughter traveling without male company. I found that I quite enjoyed this book, although it made our trekking through Latin America look like charter-tourism compared to what they did. |
