This camping novice became a survival expert as he wandered the globe taking every risk that fell his way. With humor, persistence, and a good bit of luck, Ryan lived to tell the tale. He’s not sure just how many times he stared death in the face, but Ryan would do it all again in a heartbeat. He’s left bits and pieces of his self and his psyche on uninhabited islands from the Florida Keys to New Zealand, and in the lush peaks and valleys of Hawaii and Central America. With just the gear he could carry on his kayak, Ryan set out to live for a year on a deserted island just off the Florida Keys. The happiness and hardships he experienced will surprise and delight. Whether it was a sinking boat or a tropical storm, Ryan’s resilience saw him through. He has recorded it all here for you in his witty, occasionally crusty, style. .....................................
