My rating: <a href="https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/2881198399">4 of 5 stars</a><br /><br />
I received a complimentary copy of this book through Netgalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.<br />After the death of his brother in Vietnam, Steven, recent college graduate, decides to take a year off and travel across Europe for "zero dollars a day". He relies on a cast of generous and quirky strangers for food and shelter, meets new friends, and ultimately learns to let go of his grief over his brother's death.<br />While this sounds like an awesome experience, something I would love to do myself, I can't imagine total strangers taking anyone in in this day and age. It really makes you long for that more trusting generation. I thought this book was fun and lighthearted and I enjoyed the strange experiences he had with total strangers. Great adventure story!
