World tour on a camel while soaring in a Zeppelin
Just a literary world tour to experience life, love, hate, and the journey of becoming human in those countries. I tried to choose not only authors from those countries but also stories set in them to enrich the experience of living there. I am forever grateful for any book recommendations from all around the world.
