In the title story, a young man waiting in the Hotel Eden discovers--as others have--that Eden is not a permanent domicile. In "Zanduce at Second," a baseball player turned killer-by-accident undergoes a surprising transformation. We root for escaped felon Ray ("A Note on the Type") as he carves his name on a culvert wall. We drive the sweltering summer streets of Phoenix as a nineteen-year-old narrator goes through an unsettling sexual awakening ("Oxygen"). In these and other stories, whether his characters are getting sabotaged by nightcaps or encountering nudists on a rafting trip, Carlson takes us to new places in a new way.

This book provides incite on how to live a productive and rewarding life.
Format: Kindle
Gordon Bernhardt does an excellent job describing his adventure traveling the Camino de Santiago beginning in France and ending in Spain. He describes the impact it had on his personal and professional life and how experiences such as this can reward an individual in all aspects of their life. We are all on a journey through life and with the right perspective, which he delineates, can enhance and reward us and those around us. He encourages us to enjoy our journey and interactions with others. I recommend this book for anyone that wants to get the most out of life and benefit from lessons learned along the way.

"We're All Peregrinos"
Format: Hardcover, Format: Hardcover
I highly recommend this book. I just finished reading it, now it’s time to review and reflect. It’s one of those books that will be kept close at hand because of the many passages useful in daily life. This book isn't just for investors (financial) it's a book for those who believe that life itself is an investment. Thought provoking questions at the end of each chapter are a plus. As stated above, "We're All Peregrinos" (pilgrims), on our own hike through life. If you let it, this book will have a positive impact on how your journey goes.

A great book to read about pursuing a passion and gaining insights about life and culture
Format: Hardcover
I enjoyed reading this book. The author, Gordon Bernhardt, writes his preparation and journey for a Camino Hike through Spain with vivid expressions and fun stories. He has such a good ability for story-telling that I feel like I was walking side by side with him. He also can draw incredible and unexpected insights from the hiking experience and apply them to the essential aspects of life and investing. Highly recommend reading this book.

There's so much more than walking packed into this book.
Format: Kindle
Investing is more my husband's purview, but I loved Gordon Bernhardt's tale of his walk and life stories, and that made reading the parts about investing actually enjoyable for me. The author's arduous journey on the Camino was fascinating and I couldn't wait for his next experience. He did an outstanding job of weaving together his walk, his investment philosophies, and the life lessons he learned along the way.
