Book Review: Around The World Through My Lens, By Jyoti Jha

Round the corner, there may still be, a new place to discover

This is the subtitle of Jyoti Jha’s book - Around the world… through my lens. Her book has recently been launched at the Blogchatter Ebook Carnival. She introduces her book with these words

Travelling teaches beyond books…originates memories and leaves footprints.

In fact, I truly live with those words. Every avid traveller would agree that during their journey they meet many people and learn many things. Having a great desire to travel the world and discover new places has always compelled me to read about new places and travel-related articles. So there was no chance that I was going to miss this book.

You can always get to know about new places through the plethora of sources available on the internet. But as far as I am concerned, I love reading travellers personal experiences. Believe me, you will get to see another aspect of travelling and a different story to learn and enjoy.

I simply loved the picture featured on the cover showing a beautiful beach with travellers walking by holding hands together, leaving footprints behind but collecting a bundle of memories along with them. Jyoti’s book is all about her own travel experiences and memories that she made while travelling around the globe. Interestingly, she used one of her own pictures for the cover justifying the second half of the title Around the world… through my lens.

My Review

I mostly write travel posts for my blog and I can totally relate to this book. I just liked the way she covered details about places and expressed her experience through words and pictures.

The places she has visited are sprinkled around the globe. They include places like Andaman, Ooty From India. Popular tourist places of Europe like France, Belgium, Amsterdam, Prague, Vienna. London, Edinburgh, Cardiff, Isle of Wight, Kingston Upon Thames, Lake District, Manchester, National Space Center (Leicester), Canary Wharf, Stratford Upon Avon, Oxford, Warwick Castle, York and Greenwich from the UK. Chicago, Washington DC, New Jersey, Door County, Racine from USA and Tokyo, Japan.
