Well, have just left Antarctica with the fantastic 'Everland' by Rachel Hunt - definately recommended; it is a tale of 2 expeditions on the Antarctic island of Everland; one in 1913 and the other 100 years later in 2013. Both expeditions feature parallel events and personalities; as well as a shared sense of undefined dread as the polar winter closes in... with a conclusion to both narratives that demonstrates that human nature - in all of its facets - is universal, no matte...r what age we live in.
On from there I am currently in the Falkland Islands with 'Little Black Lies' before heading off to my final 2 continents: South & North America. I have 90 books to go and, having read 230 books in the past 7 years of my journey, I reckon on another couple of years before I end up back in my starting point of London, England. Who knows where I'll be myself geographically when I reach that point :)
