The Moaning of Life: The Worldly Wisdom of Karl Pilkington by Karl Pilkington
Karl Pilkington is back on the road, and this time he's on a journey of self-discovery, in The Moaning of Life, the follow-up to An Idiot Abroad
Karl Pilkington is 40 years old. He's not married, he doesn't have kids, and he has a job where he's known as an "idiot." It's time for him to take stock and face up to life's big question—what does it all mean?
Karl is no stranger to travel, and now he's off on a series of madcap adventures around the globe to find out how other cultures approach life's big issues. Traveling from far-flung tribes to high-tech cities, Karl experiences everything from a drive-through wedding in Las Vegas to a vocational theme park in Japan. He meets a group of people in Mexico who find happiness through pain, attends a clowning school in Los Angeles, and even encounters a woman in Bali who lets him help deliver her baby.
Have his experiences changed him? Find out in this hilarious new book where Karl shares his stories and opinions in his inimitable style.
