The Nile on eBay TravelsWithSheila Guide by Sheila Simkin
Mention the Atacama Desert and travelers respond, "Huh?" Well...Atacama Desert in Northern Chile spans 41,000 square miles across four South American countries and is the driest place in the world! Can you imagine a destination that receives only four inches of rain every 1,000 years? Arid, yes but the Atacama also has an ultra-dramatic landscape, red canyons, turquoise thermal lakes, lunar valleys, flamingos and the third largest geyser field in the world. It seems like some people work their entire life to take an Exotic Vacation, when in reality, such a trip can be had for less than taking the family to DisneyWorld. Other than the cost of getting here, Atacama is a mecca for backpackers. Camp, stay in a hostel, hotel or one of the World's finest hotels.

FORMATPaperback LANGUAGEEnglish CONDITIONBrand New Author Biography
Sheila Simkin, a native Chicagoan, has been traveling the world since 1960. The travel bug first hit on her honeymoon in Miami. Fidel Castro had just taken over Cuba and lured by rock-bottom prices, Sheila sweet-talked her ex-husband into abandoning Miami for Cuba. That marked the beginning of her lifetime travel passion and addiction. There are very few countries that are not on her to-see list no matter how remote and/or difficult they may be with many, "What was I thinking of" moments in hindsight. The U.S. State Department recognizes 193 independent countries and she has visited over 150 in over 40 years of travel (but...who's counting). Touring, hiking, trekking, rafting, snowshoeing, skiing, volunteering on archaeological digs, family trips and, she must admit, occasionally sitting on a beach and compulsively shopping. Her goal is to encourage you to take the big step and travel to more exotic, remote destinations with tips, anecdotes and reassurance that, yes, you will come back alive. Visit her "travelswithsheila" channel on YouTube to watch over 2,000 videos filmed around the world and covering the gamut from taking a cruise to camping in Egypt's desert, food (fried tarantulas, anyone?), sights and even instructions on how to navigate subways in Paris and Beijing. All Travels With Sheila Guides will tell you the truth, and only the whole truth, about each country and whether sights are a hit, or a miss. Follow Sheila's advice to avoid making mistakes she learned the hard way. For example, not knowing that an important piece of equipment when camping or trekking is...an Air Mattress? And what kind of crazy idiot goes trekking in Siberia and gets lost? Really...lost in Siberia? Only Sheila. Happy traveling!
