About the Book

Everything was cold and devoid of excitement until that moment when I decided to rebel against my frustrating path and create something extraordinary that would free me from the hell of emptiness. Since I set foot in the wooden boat bobbing on the shore on a moonless autumn night, my life has become an improvised series of extraordinary situations. I embarked on adventure after adventure and endangered my life more than once. I came close to death by drowning, made myself a fugitive from justice, and almost descended into the world of crime. I repeatedly found myself wishing I could return to my monotonous, excitement-free life. I feared dying alone and destitute in some forgotten corner. I feared that I had bartered my ordinary life for nothing
