This is the story of a couple who set off to travel round the world with a kayak, using it on every available area of river, lake or sea to extend their journey. It describes the extremes of their experiences, from sleeping in the dirt with cockroaches to living in luxury in Hong Kong, from being chased by a hippo on Lake Malawi to being attacked by a swan along the River Danube. It tells of the physical demands of paddling thousands of miles in gruelling conditions.
