THE KINDNESS OF STRANGERS

Travel Stories That Make Your Heart Grow


Edited by Fearghal O'Nuallain

Foreword by Levison Wood

Featuring Mama Ana by Charlie Carroll

Travel is the only thing you can buy that makes you feel richer.

Travel opens our minds to the world; it helps us to embrace risk and uncertainty, overcome challenges and understand the people we meet and the places we visit. But what happens when we arrive home? How do our experiences shape us? The Kindness of Strangers explores what it means to be vulnerable and to be helped by someone we've never met before.

This is a collection of tales by adventurous souls who have completed daring journeys through challenging terrain, ranging from the Calais Jungle to the Amazon, from Land's End to the Gobi Desert, from New Guinea to Iran and many other places in between. These are stories that make our hearts grow, stories that will restore our faith in the world and remind us that, despite what the media says, the world isn't a scary place - rather it is filled with Kind Strangers just like us.
