Grounded: A Down to Earth Journey Around the World

Seth and his girlfriend, Rebecca, decide to circumnavigate the world. But, with one restriction: All travel must be on the ground, with no travelling by airplane. Though the first part of the journey, a trip across the Atlantic on a commercial barge, was horribly slow and boring, the pace picks up once the two begin to move on dry land. Stevenson has a lively sense of humor and the story seems to get better and better as he and his girlfriend move around the world.
