Review of 'Carnet De Voyage (Travel Journal)' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
Loved this travel journal by Craig Thompson. From it, I learned not to travel alone, not to draw in the streets of Marrakesh and Morocco and to pretend to be Canadian instead of American when traveling in Europe :)
Although, this was a travel journal, I felt like Thompson shared so much more with readers than his destinations and meals. He introduced us to his friends, to those who helped him along the way, and to the one he left behind.
Thompson draws beautifully and makes it a joy to scour over his drawings and find the smallest details. At the same time, it was sad to view his misery of being alone, being in pain emotionally and physically, and being worn down with the tour so far from home.
Thoroughly enjoyed reading this book.
