Educated Wanderer Library

At Educated Wanderer, we think that learning should be purposeful, fun and broad. To that end, we recommend a combination of reading and travel. We want you to get the most out of your trip through immersing yourself in the culture around you. Prior knowledge of your destination will help you in doing so.
