What if the world was far kinder and more connected than headlines lead us to believe? If smiles were passports?
Beyond Timbuktu takes readers on a surprising A-to-Z armchair journey—from Albania to Zimbabwe—through over 150 countries—some well-known, many misunderstood.
Best-selling author Catherine DeVrye shares real-life stories beyond bias and borders: skiing in Lebanon, cycling through Lithuania, swimming in Yemen, dining with royalty in Bahrain or sharing pizza with Syrian refugees in Serbia. Through vivid vignettes and surprising moments of shared humanity, she shows us that more unites us than divides us, revealing universal hopes, dreams, love and laughter.
With insight, warmth, humour and unflinching honesty, Catherine shatters stereotypes of often-maligned nations, quietly spotlighting that individuals are usually kinder than their governments.
This isn’t a guidebook or tell-all memoir—it’s a rich mosaic of adventures, observations and encounters, illustrating that courage, kindness and connection appear in the most unexpected places.
Whether you’re a baby boomer with a passport full of stamps or a backpacker planning your first trip, this book will transport you—to places you’ve been, dream of visiting or never wish to set foot in. If you’ve ever wanted to explore the world or understand it more deeply beyond media-fuelled fear, here’s your invitation…
