In his early thirties Justin Alexander Shetler quit his job at a tech startup and set out on a global journey: across the United States by motorcycle, then down to South America, and on to the Philippines, Thailand, and Nepal, in search of authentic experiences and meaningful encounters, while also documenting his travels on Instagram. His enigmatic character and magnetic personality gained him a devoted following who lived vicariously through his adventures.

Lost in the valley of death - gripping but could have been better researched
Revisado: 02-04-22
I started this reading the review in New York times, the story itself an extremely interesting one , Justin is charismatic, interesting and the portrayal is superb! What I had problem with is the portrayal of India, found is astounding that even in this day and age it is described time and again as some kind of hippie destination rampant with sadhus and drugs and hippie culture and corrupt and inept police officers etc etc! The most glaring inaccuracy i have to mention is the description of Krishna as a warrior prince who advices Arjuna against war and guides him towards peace in the Bhagavad Gita!!!!! It is exactly the opposite, Krishna advises Arjun to take up arms and fight for the right! He counsels him on defeating evil and making sure righteousness wins against all cost! Well, i had to mention this but there were sone inconsistencies through! Pronunciation could have been better of Indian names... over all a very good listen though!
