The Sage and the Gremlin: How to Conquer the World Without Thinking Too Hard - 6282

Four countries. Two years. Zero clue what he was getting into. What was supposed to be a short stint teaching English in Japan turned into a whirlwind two years across Asia for Matt Niner. From the neon madness of Tokyo to the dusty backroads of Cambodia, The Sage and the Gremlin is a vivid, fast-paced travel memoir that captures the thrill, confusion, wonder, and undeniable weirdness of the expat life. With nothing but a tiny apartment as a base of operations and zero tolerance for self-doubt, Matt manages to conquer Mount Fuji, lose himself in the temples of Angkor, dodge food poisoning in India, and stay sane in countries where he doesn’t speak the language—or fit in at all. This is not a “travel guide.” It’s a no-filter, 100% honest account of: Teaching English in rural Japan with no experience whatsoever Solo travel through India, Cambodia, and Thailand with barely any planning The chance encounters, fast friendships, and quiet wisdom that only comes from the open road How to master the secret weapon inside us that unlocks the entire world Equal parts funny, chaotic, and poignant, The Sage and the Gremlin is for anyone who’s ever dreamed of ditching the cubicle for the wider world—or just wants a front-row seat to what happens when someone does. If you like travel memoirs with grit, soul, and a healthy dose of WTF moments, this one’s for you. Grab your copy now and start the adventure.
