Funny, easy to read, and looking for a home
But enough about the author
FROM THE AUTHOR OF THE BESTSELLER, A NATION OF IDIOTS
Some people go abroad to find themselves. He went abroad and found a second job, a confusing relationship, and serious questions about his life choices.
Welcome to Tripping Abroad, Daksh Tyagi's hilarious and painfully honest comedy about the life of an international student who juggles work, relationships, some poverty, and daily wages. For him, formal education barely makes the syllabus.
Tripping Abroad is the book that every Indian who has lived abroad will recognise immediately and every Indian who hasn't will wish they'd read before they left.

WHAT'S INSIDE
Moving abroad for education sounds like the plan. What nobody tells you is that the plan falls apart on arrival. Tripping Abroad follows one international student through the realities of life outside India.
The odd jobs, the culture shock, the loneliness that masquerades as adventure, and the relationships that make absolutely no sense in retrospect.
Daksh Tyagi writes about the international student experience the way it actually is and not way it is sold. That's why it hits.
