Travel

[close] Saving the world, one book at a time since March 11, 2015. This group may offend those easily offended. We may get personal. We might (or will) get a little bawdy. We'll be talking about anything here, in casual conversation. So unless a remark promotes hate, viewpoints will not be censored. We want everyone to feel free to participate and join in the fun. This group is private, only to limit the lurking. Anyone can join in the fun. Swearing is allowed. Suggested 18+ or an otherwise adult mindset. This group is open to everyone. We have few rules, really. * Answer the challenge question when you join; this may require joining through the website rather than the app. * Be respectful and mindful of others! The good old "treat others how you wish to be treated" applies here as well. So unless a remark promotes hate, viewpoints will not be censored. We want everyone to feel free to participate! * So no lurking, jump in the discussions and join the fun!

[close] A group for all Australian Goodreads members (and those interested in Australia), no matter what they read!

[close] Wanderlust Reads Bookclub is for those who love to travel and love to read. Each month members will vote on selected books set in different travel destinations. Genres will vary. Just like travel often takes us out of our comfort zone, reading new genres can do the same. The book that receives the most votes will be read over the course of a month and you can join a zoom meet up on the 2nd Tuesday of every month. You can also find Wanderlust Reads on facebook and our website.

[close] Reading takes you places. Where in the world will your next book take you? If you love world literature, translated works, travel writing, or exploring the world through books, you have come to the right place! ATW80 began in 2009 as a challenge on TNBBC. The separate group was established in 2011. Anyone can join and participate in the challenges or readings at any time. Challenge participation is not a requirement of joining. Anyone who loves reading books from around the world is welcome here. The main purpose of this group is to travel the world through books, experiencing new authors and cultures along the way. Want to read about the world? We have close to 50,000 books cataloged by setting and more are added each week. I personally started reading around the world in 2008. This venture has introduced me to far off lands, fresh viewpoints, and many new authors I might not have discovered otherwise. Here is a record of my travels since 2009: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/18478768-diane-s-world-travels-by-book I have worked very hard gathering resources for others to use and coming up with new activities.

The more that you learn, the more places you'll go.” - Dr. Suess “There are too many books I haven’t read, too many places I haven’t seen, too many memories I haven’t kept long enough.” ― Irwin Shaw Globe Stand Photo: Daniel Loiselle/Getty Images
