paul theroux

This week Melissa welcomes prolific American novelist and travel writer Paul Theroux, whose bibliography includes The Mosquito Coast, The Great Railway Bazaar, Dark Star Safari, and many more.

The conversation covers how travel has shaped Paul’s storytelling, collecting treasures while on the road, returning to beloved places, what makes for strong travel writing, why he strays off the beaten path, and his upcoming book about George Orwell.

If you have many upcoming international trips, you’ll want to hear this week’s Travel Hack. Melissa shares important information about recent updates to the online passport renewal process.
