Camel

Wondering what he might do with an attractive camel he meets on a Mediterranean beach while walking 39-kilometers from Sidi Bou Said towards Bizerte, Tunisia.

The Idiot, who met this sweet camel, halfway through a sandy 39-kilometer MedTrekking day, thinks he could buy, rent, borrow, steal or hire the darling dromedary as his MedTrekking companion and aide-de-camp in Tunisia.
Instead, being true to his feet and his quest, he simply chats with his new BFF for a few minutes before walking another mile for a camel (while recalling the 1949 “I’d walk a mile for a Camel” cigarette advertisement).

The first 4,401 kilometers are explored in his inspirational and entertaining first book "The Idiot and the Odyssey: Walking the Mediterranean." The next 4,401 kilometers are covered in the gods-filled sequel, "The Idiot and the Odyssey II: Myth, Madness and Magic on the Mediterranean,” published on Valentine's Day 2013.
