Three books we would pack.
In Patagonia by Bruce Chatwin — a classic of modern travel writing, built from short, sharp episodes. Read it for the voice.
A Time of Gifts by Patrick Leigh Fermor — a young man's walk across Europe in the 1930s, remembered decades later. Read it for the prose and the sense of place.
Shadow of the Silk Road by Colin Thubron — a journey from China to the Mediterranean, full of conversation and observation. Read it for the people.
Prices, dates, permits and rules change — approximate, verify before you travel. Researched from public sources; field verification pending.
