From the frozen Arctic to the atolls of the tropical Pacific-from caribou to coconuts-Andy Deering takes you through a life-forming journey far outside the bounds of normal society. In this mix of true stories, philosophy on life and practical ideas on how to achieve the life most people only dream about, you'll see how it's possible to make those dreams into reality. You'll discover the true meaning of what it is to be wealthy far beyond any number on a bank account, and how achieving that wealth might be as easy as simply being yourself. Best of all, you'll get a look at the many facets of life taken for granted as simply "the way things are" from the fresh perspective of someone who's learned to take nothing for granted. And that perspective could change your life forever .
