About this book

School of Travel chronicles Donald N. Roberson, Jr.'s rich experiences while living and working in

Croatia, the Czech Republic and beyond.

Drawing from his two-decade-long journey abroad, the memoir transports the audience through captivating cultural encounters, spirited adventures, and intimate interactions with locals. Roberson frames travel as an educational endeavor, a concept he's explored in previous research, exemplifying how voyages can lead to deeper understanding of the world, peaceful interactions with others, and profound personal growth.

The narrative is enriched with Roberson's personal photographs, offering the curious an authentic glimpse into his travels. More than a mere recollection, this memoir serves as a testament to travel's transformative power, encouraging literary explorers to embark on their own journeys of discovery through life.

While Roberson shares his truth to the best of his memory, don't take his word for it. The author hopes to foster a dialogue about the world's vastness and the education it offers, and inspire fellow adventurers to travel, to meet other people, and get to know the great big world which is our home.
