Description

Have you seen Hans Karlsson? If you live somewhere on this planet, he's probably been there, riding through on his Honda Gold Wing. Around the World on Two Wheels: An Old Man's Motorcycle Journeys Through 76 Countries recounts the true adventures of a man who has ridden (and is riding) his bike to all corners of the globe. Hans Karlsson, age ninety-one, has been to Anchorage, Mexico City, Buenos Aires, Bogota, Lima, Sydney, Auckland, Paris, Moscow, Stockholm, Zurich, Glasgow, Damascus, Istanbul, Tehran, New Delhi, and about a thousand towns and villages in between. So come along with Hans and take in beautiful vistas, exotic locations, world-famous sites, little-traveled backstreets, and wonderful people of all kinds. You can never quite be sure what's around the next bend or over the next hill, but, with Hans, you can always be sure it'll be an adventure.
