Inhaltsangabe
How do you become an explorer? It's a question every child has asked, and Steve Backshall was no different. After a rainy day visit to an exhibition of artifacts from Papua New Guinea, it was a question that began to obsess the seven-year old Backshall. But surely he'd been born a century too late? And yet through boundless enthusiasm, determination, and a refusal to accept defeat. Backshall was soon carrying business cards from National Geographic describing him as their "Adventurer in Residence." The vast, untamed wildness of Papua New Guinea was where Backshall forged his unlikely path. From crushing lows of early failures to the extraordinary highs of the BBC's Lost Land of the Volcano expedition, it was this dark island which gave Backshall his opportunity. Full of incredible wildlife, extraordinary wilderness, jungles, cannibals, pitfalls, triumph, danger, and excitement, Looking for Adventure is the irresistible, inspiring story of a little boy who let his heart rule his head.
