Citizien of Nowhere - Paperback

by Glynis Scott (Author)

CITIZEN OF NOWHERE argues passionately that it is possible to be a citizen of the world with a single passport. Using an autobiographical framework Glynis Scott relates how reading and travel can broaden the mind, inspire the imagination and develop one's understanding and appreciation of other people and places. Through travel you discover that "the world is full of really nice people" and if you can't travel, just read.
