“If in doubt, just walk until your day becomes interesting” – Rolf Potts
"Rolf Potts is the author of Vagabonding, one of my favorite books of all-time. It was one of just two books (the other was Walden) that I carried with me around the world from 2004-2005. Those adventures led directly to The 4-Hour Workweek" said Tim Ferriss about world traveler and author Rolf Potts.
Vagabonding: An Uncommon Guide to the Art of Long-Term World Travel, Potts' first book, mixes practical advice with philosophical insights about the value of travel. Upon its release in 2003, the Boston Globe called it "a valuable contribution to our thinking, not only about travel but about life and work." USA Today dubbed the author "Jack Kerouac for the Internet Age”.

"World travel doesn’t have to be a wealthy person’s sport. In this often hilarious conversation, Rolf and I dig deep into travel tactics, creating time wealth, “managing success,” and much more. It’s a fun romp through every imaginable topic, from business to poetry, and from Wall Street to psychedelics." ~ Tim Ferriss
