Around the World in 80 Favours : One man's ridiculous quest to find meaning - and free travel

See all formats and editions

Actor and comedian Tom Rosenthal is a solo-living, daily-Deliverooing, Uber-to-everywhereing, screen-addicted, community-contact-avoidant hermit of a man. He frequently gets told he doesn't live in the real world. So he's going to start trying.
The challenge
Get around the world without paying for travel
The rules
1. Anyone who helps him on a leg of his journey will be repaid with a favour considered by both parties to be of equal value.
2. All favours must be completed before the trip's end.
3. 80 favours must be completed.
4. No plane journeys longer than 7 hours.
5. No repeat favours.
6. In the event of a kidnap the challenge shall be considered null and void.
7. No sexual favours. Why is everyone asking about sexual favours?

Will Tom find a community? Will Tom find a purpose? Or indeed, will Tom die? Pre-order this book to find out (potentially posthumously ghost-written). Spoiler alert! Tom didn't die, but he did...
