Description of  The (Big) Year That Flew [Audiobook]

Ten years later, he embarked on an incredible, arduous, and perilous journey that took him around the globe over uninhabited islands, through dense unforgiving rainforests, across snowy mountain peaks and unrelenting deserts-in just a single year. Would he survive? Would he be able to break the "Big Year" record, navigating through a world filled with shifting climate and geopolitical challenges? The (Big) Year that Flew By is an unforgettable, personal exploration of the limits of human potential when engaging with the natural world. It is a book about birds and birding and Arjan's attempts to raise awareness for critically endangered species, but it is also a book about overcoming mental challenges, extreme physical danger, and human competition and fully realizing your passions through nature, adventure, and conservation.
