It&8217s1977 and architecture student John Tingley has left the University of Oregon for a grand tour of the great countries of Europe and the Middle East, and a pilgrimage to the physical and spiritual unknown. There are no smartphones, no Internet, no global positioning systems to guide one in 1977, you must carry all the necessary travel tools with you and rely on your innate abilities: those known and those to be discovered.You are invited to walk the streets of Rome, Istanbul, Athens and Jerusalem with John and hear his thoughts on the architecture, people and history. You will feel like you are with him, experiencing the journey as it unfolds. Through his vivid descriptions, John brings to life the soul of each place visited, from the bustling bazaars of Istanbul to the magnificent landscapes of the Swiss Alps, to the stillness of the Sinai Desert. The narrative is woven with tales of adventure, moments of introspection, self-discovery and the quest to understand what motivates humans to create the cities and buildings in which we live. Each chapter unravels a piece of the mosaic that made up his extraordinary journey, inviting readers to traverse the path less taken and let his journey be yours.
