Mike Stephens went to Paris, aged ten, with his father and ended up eating dog biscuits. As a young man, his tastes improved, and he visited many elegant cities in Europe, sometimes being an informal ski guide in the Alps. Becoming more adventurous, Mike toured India and the Far East, and also Mexico, Cuba, USA, and Canada. His greatest adventures, however, were on safari in Namibia, Botswana, Zimbabwe, and Kenya. In this book, Mike reveals many of the hilarious events in which he was involved and describes the fascinating characters he met from around the world. At various times, he has been foolish enough to approach on foot a white rhino, a bull elephant, and three cheetahs devouring their freshly caught prey. In India, his life was threatened as he was caught up in riots, while in Vietnam he ended up, unwittingly, in a brothel. In the USA, on patrol with the police, he was again caught in disorder. Unexpected adventures and humorous events are all found in this book.
