After renovating a dilapidated Andalusian cottage and transforming it into a guest house, Robert and Sabina face a new set of challenges. As they continue to uncover the pros and pitfalls of hospitality, they realize that they need to do more to establish roots in their new community before they feel truly at home.

In June 2023, writer Dan Rubinstein lashed camping gear to his stand-up paddle board and embarked on an improbable solo voyage from Ottawa to Montreal, New York City, Toronto, and back to Ottawa along the rivers, lakes, and canals of a landlocked region.

După ce a petrecut zece ani în Anglia, Bill Bryson vrea să-şi rememoreze copilăria, aşa că pleacă din locul în care s-a născut, Des Moines, Iowa, într-o călătorie prin 38 dintre statele americane, pe care o documentează cu mult umor. Autorul speră să se reîntîlnească cu peisajele idilice ale copilăriei sale, însă găseşte lanuri nesfîrşite de porumb, benzinării, moteluri şi localuri care arată peste tot aproape la fel şi sunt populate de oameni care seamănă uimitor de mult unul cu altul.

Folosind mijloacele de transport în comun şi făcînd drumeţii ori de cîte ori i se iveşte ocazia, autorul parcurge un lung şi întortocheat traseu ce începe în Dover, locul în care a pus pentru prima dată piciorul în Marea Britanie, şi ajunge pînă la John O'Groats, capul cel mai nordic al insulei.
