The Street Collector
The Incredible Adventures of an Autistic World Traveler
Travel is by nature unpredictable. And autistic people hate unpredictability. That makes it all the more surprising that Peter Schmidt, diagnosed with Asperger's syndrome, wants to collect all the roads of the world, but his longing and passion for collecting are stronger than the fear of the unknown.
Peter Schmidt crosses ice deserts, experiences distress at sea, and travels through Syria during the impending civil war. He doesn't start to panic until the McDonald's on highway 95 runs out of soda... because that was not expected.
Peter Schmidt takes us with him on his bizarre trip around the globe. The prism of autism also changes our view of the world, making for an unpredictable reading adventure!
