A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

Stow away with Rick Steves for a glimpse into the unforgettable moments, misadventures, and memories of his 1978 journey on the legendary Hippie Trail.

In the 1970s, the ultimate trip for any backpacker was the storied "Hippie Trail" from Istanbul to Kathmandu. A 23-year-old Rick Steves made the trek, and like a travel writer in training, he documented everything along the way: jumping off a moving train, making friends in Tehran, getting lost in Lahore, getting high for the first time in Herat, battling leeches in Pokhara, and much more. The experience ignited his love of travel and forever broadened his perspective on the world.

This book contains edited selections from Rick's journal and travel photos with a 45-years-later preface and postscript reflecting on how the journey through Turkey, Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan, India, and Nepal changed his life.

You know Rick Steves. Now discover the adventure of a lifetime that made him the travel writer he is today.

Finally, a perfect large size! Exactly what I needed.
Color: Black
I am incredibly satisfied with the size of this holder! It’s rare to find an option this large on the market, and the extra space is exactly what I prefer. It holds everything perfectly and keeps my sink area so organized. If you prefer a larger size like I do, you won't be disappointed!

Perfect fit!
Color: Black, Color: Black
It is exactly what I needed. I love the expansion option and the toolbox that can be attached to the outside of the tray. I had a problem with the tray sliding after I adjusted to the size I wanted, but I secured everything in place with a few z-ties, and it works great. I also put anti-slip dots on the bottom, so it doesn't slide on the counter. I love it and I am very happy with my purchase!

We like it
Color: Black
It works well, holds everything we need it to, and the spout for draining water works well. It allows us to be organised without a cluttered (or wet) counter.
