Preface

Paulo Coelho draws on experiences from his own life.

He tells the story of Paulo, a skinny Brazilian, setting off on a journey in search of a deeper meaning for his life.

Along the way he travels on the ‘Death Train to Bolivia’, then on to Peru, Chile and Argentina.

In Amsterdam he meets Karla, a young woman iwho has been waiting to find the ideal companion to accompany her on the fabled hippie trail to Nepal. Together with their fellow travellers, they embark on a trip aboard the Magic Bus, heading across Europe and Central Asia to Kathmandu.

For everyone, the journey is transformative. For Paulo and Karla it is a life-defining love story that leads to choices that will set the course of the rest of their lives.
