We’ve heard it all before - bored urbanite quits rat race for life of travel and adventure.

Or have we?

Thanks to superhuman naivety and a crippling lack of preparation, Adonis’ story is an improbable barrage of comical escapades.

Set against a shifting backdrop, ranging from ancient lost cities to strip clubs, his travels fling him from the terror of near death experiences to moments of life-affirming joy. Tales of guns, drugs, deadly animals, destructive forces of nature and cheerful muggings might make Adonis sound like one of those insane adrenaline junkies, but, incredibly, this is a true story about a normal person. This could be your story.
