In 1997, Tom hitchhiked from England to India
with no money at all.
Over the next four months his journey took him through 11 countries
until he arrived in Goa with just one dollar left in his pocket.The
following year a self-published edition of "Hand to Mouth to
India" sold out in Goa and this success led Alchemy Books to
publish it in London in July 2000. Click on the links below preview the book:
