A Stingray Bit My Nipple!
With a title like this, you are bound to take a look! A Stingray Bit My Nipple! True Stories from Real Travelers, would make a great coffee table book or gift for the holiday season!
Everybody loves to laugh, and who wouldn’t while reading these sometimes strange and oh so addicting stories. The stories were submitted to Budget Travel magazine by travelers from all over the world.
Author Erik Torkells notes, “One of the things I love most about our ‘True Stories’ section (and by extension, this book) is that readers are so willing to laugh at themselves—they send in what are sometimes very embarrassing stories, because we all know that that’s life, especially when you travel.”
Some of the stories include: a woman who accidentally set her hair on fire while lighting a prayer candle to the tourist who unwittingly purchased a T-shirt featuring the Swahili word meaning “white boy tourist.” From the stingray that actually did bite a gentleman’s nipple (he was told the stingray may have mistaken his white belly for a female stingray).
Some of the best times we’ve all had traveling have been when unexpected things happen!
