Two Years, One Van, No Plan: Patricia Sullivan’s Journey to Kathmandu

In this episode of Indie Authors Tell All, host Mike Van Horn talks with Patricia Sullivan, author of Overland Before the Hippie Trail: Kathmandu and Beyond, With a Van, a Man and No Plan. Patricia shares the remarkable true story of a two-year journey she and her husband took in 1965, driving a VW van from Europe through the Middle East and Asia all the way to Nepal and beyond. Patricia discusses how decades later she transformed old journals, letters, maps, and photographs into a compelling memoir, the challenges of writing about experiences from 60 years ago, and what she learned about indie publishing. She also shares the exciting news that Stanford University is archiving and digitizing her original travel materials for future generations.
