The 9.54 from Great Malvern

The story of an overland journey around the world

The story of an overland journey around the globe. A circumnavigation starting from Great Malvern, England and using the world’s public transport. A journey designed to join together buses, boats and, especially, trains. A global journey with an intention to observe and not to judge. Travelling ever forward to the destination of home. 

This book tells the story of the author’s overland journey around the globe.  A circumnavigation starting from Great Malvern in Worcestershire, England and using the world’s public transport.  A journey designed to join together buses, boats and, especially, trains – the Trans-Siberian, the railway to Tibet (the highest in the world), Malaysia’s Jungle Line, Australia’s Indian Pacific, Amtrak and many others.  Crossing the Pacific Ocean by hitching a lift on a container ship.  Meeting so many people in so many countries, experiencing their natural generosity and learning the negligible differences between us.  A global journey with an intention to observe and not to judge.  Travelling ever forward to the destination of home.
