John Lecher Zapata could never stay off the road for long. Always eager to travel the world, he did so, often with his wife. Whether on motorcycle, by Jeep, or on foot, he carried with him a lifelong unwelcome guest. This book chronicles his travels - and his life - with Asperger Syndrome.Everyone has a story, but not every story is told. That was John Zapata’s mindset when he recorded his travel experiences around the globe. A first trip backpacking across Europe in the ’70s whetted his appetite for meeting people in the midst of their everyday lives. He was always less of a tourist, more of an explorer. Whether on motorcycle, by Jeep, or airplane, John continued to indulge his travel passion with his wife, logging many thousands of miles across Europe, Asia, and the Americas. And each mile kicked up its own dusty story. Stories worth sharing. Stories which reveal the complications a health condition known as Asperger Syndrome can throw in an eager traveler’s face. For 50 years nothing - especially not Asperger’s - could keep John Zapata off the road. Now confined to a wheelchair, John has turned to writing the stories of his adventures. The memories are fresh. Vivid. Alive. He shares them here with the hope they will bring a smile, a chuckle, a groan or two, and perhaps inspire someone to take to the road.
