When Jonny Blairs 100-country book Backpacking Centurion was completed in August 2015, it was supposed to be released soon after that, and as a one-off book. That didnt exactly happen the way it was intended. Over the next five years, as Jonny continued on his travels, it became clear that chapter after chapter needed to be re-edited, re-positioned and in some cases, removed, delayed or in other cases - posted faster and onto the online travel blog Dont Stop Living, which meant they didnt make the book because they made the blog instead.
In those five years, unfortunately depression kicked in and was the major reason for the books delay. It was even possible that the book would never see the light of day at all. In 2019, the book was split into three distinct volumes. These three volumes are more or less in chronological order and are now being released one by one. The second volume, here with its volume title Lands Down Under has finally arrived in print.
Volume 1s Dont Look Back in Bangor began in the seaside town of Bangor in Northern Ireland and tracked Jonnys childhood and early travel days. This volume, Lands Down Under sees Jonnys completion of visiting all seven continents and hitting the 50 country mark aged 30. This story is a bit more mature and extreme than the first volume as Jonny ventures into lands afar.
Jonny finally appears to have found a home in the land down under - Australia, and a lot of this book was written in his old flat in Parramatta, or in a lonely tent in Poatina from 2009 - 2011. In between times, we have tales from Taiwan, anecdotes from Antarctica, perils in Peru and adventures in Africa. By the books end we will see the progression of Jonnys nomadic life in full swing. Even his Australia dream came to an abrupt end and it was time for lucky land.
While the first volume showed mistakes, failed romances, multiple job changes and footballic tales, Lands Down Under definitely has a more travel focus. Here, Jonny comes face to face with tribes, lands on remote islands, spends months working on farms and falls in love in one of the least likely places on earth.
In seven flying hours, hell be landing in Hong Kong.
