One Day, We Left is a book about 3,652 days of nomadic life—full of adventures, failures, and laughter.
It’s a collection of 53 personal stories, each short and to the point. Just like travel, some stories are fun, some are tough, and some make you think. Each one comes with a photograph, capturing a moment from the road.
Written by Kaspars Misins, a traveler and digital nomad from Latvia, who has spent the last 10+ years moving from place to place, sometimes visiting 20+ countries a year. Together with his wife Una, he has explored over 55 countries, learning, failing, and figuring things out along the way.
This isn’t a guide. It’s a glimpse into what a decade of nomadic life really looks like.
Here are a few of these stories that you’ll find in this book:
- Can you cycle across India eating only cookies?
- Arriving in the future with a broken arm, broken bicycle, and a smile on the face
- Step-by-step guide on how to buy, crash, and sell a motorbike in Cambodia
