She’s a BACKPACKER

She’s back!
Hillary Raphael, who divides her time among a dozen cities around the world, including Tokyo, where the seed for her first book I Love Lord Buddha (reviewed here on Japundit) came from, has a new book out titled Backpacker.
The subtitle says it all: “New York, Seoul, Phnom Penh, Sapporo, Hong Kong, Vancouver, Mexico City, Maputo, Tokyo, mon amour”.
It’s a story about gorgeous redhead with a dead Japanese boyfriend, a dominatrix mentor, and a flair for threesomes.
Got that? And her name is Helena, whose only real interest is travelling to new corners of the globe where she can smoke hash and hear techno.
160 pages of pure fun!
“and a flair for threesomes”
vittel!! - Front & Centre! (your mission should you decide to accept it is to….).

I think it’s more that Danny hopes he can get free sex as a result of this advertising.
The fact he is still doing this suggest he hasn’t got very far.

…”There’s always a guy who wants to put his mat next to the hot girl,” said Hillary Raphael, 31, a writer based in Washington. Raphael, in her 20 years of practice, has found inappropriate yoga guys so prevalent in studios that she wove them into her novel, “Backpacker,” to be published next month by Creation Books.
