Its holistic approach provides the perfect blend of information and insight through an abundance of detailed listings, resources, advice, topics, stories and quotes. The energy and excitement conveyed throughout the book is highly contagious and refreshing.

Summary: It got me here!
Review: When I first glanced through the book I didn't think it had a lot to offer. Many of the jobs were volunteer and I needed income. There were not tons of choices in that respect, but some nice ones. It is really good for people who have the desire to try something different, money and luxuries notwithstanding. The writing is whimsical and holistic, yet it doesn't romanticize the type of jobs. People who want to find a future of stability and high income should look elsewhere, anyone who wants to walk on the other side for a bit may want to pick it up. I'm currently happily teaching English in Japan thanks to this book.
