"Absurd and amusing signs from around the world"--back cover.

A full-color illustrated collection of humorous, confusing, and amusing signs from around the globe. From ?UFO University? to ?Speedo Check Ahead? to ?Fecal Face Dot Gallery,? Signspotting III: Lost and Loster in Translation takes the reader on a pictorial worldwide tour of the bizarre and hysterical street signs and advertisements that provide way more laughs than information.

For intrepid travelers and armchair dreamers-the fourth collection of amazingly odd and simply hilarious signs found the world over. Want to take a tour of the "Elephant Dung Factory and Souvenir Shop"? How about visiting the towns of Bastardo and Moronville, and doing some shopping at Sad Décor or the Mayan Treasures Factory Outlet? Whether unsettling ("One Way Tours"), unfortunate ("Evil Poo Lookout"), or simply baffling ("Eels May Be Slippery"), the signs in this all-new collection will change the way you look at the printed world around you.

Super serious Asahi Suzumura and laidback, easygoing Mitsuki Sayama might seem like an odd couple, but they made a deal; they'll vacation around the world and when they get back to Japan, they'll get married. As they travel from country to country, the different people, cultures and cuisine they encounter begin to bring them closer together. After all they're not just learning about the world, but about themselves too.

Straight-talking, down-to-earth and totally irreverent, NO SHITTING IN THE TOILET examines cheap travel with clear eyes and hard realism. Based on the 1996 Travel Website of the Year (Net Magazine) NSITT is a celebration of all that's perverse about travel. It's about getting stranded and ripped off. It's about sitting in a tiny room counting cockroaches and feeling sorry for yourself. It's about being totally clueless, hopeless and pathetic... and loving every minute of it!In the four years since the original NSITT took the backpacker world by storm, many changes have revolutionised the travel experience - the internet and the trend towards short-break holidays being the most significant. The plummeting value of the dollar means more and more holiday-makers are venturing even further off the beaten track in search of affordable holidays - and thus deeper into the territory of NSITT, 'where you're more likely to find a cockroach on your pillow than a complimentary mint'. The three new chapters will keep Peter's fans - original groupies and new recruits alike - well-informed on all aspects of backpacker travel. Peter shares his secrets with chapters like- "Top 10 horrific bus rides", "Top 10 big nights out" and "Top 10 travel ailments". NSITT is the perfect antidote to vaseline-lensed accounts of travel. Peter fixes a clear and unromantic eye on the backpacker experience and tells it like it really is - and how we all (ultimately) love it to be! After all, who dines out on smooth-sailing experiences? It's the disasters that get the laughs - and create the memories.

Anyone who has spent time on the road has come across unintentionally hilarious attempts at written English, whether in signs, menus, or instruction manuals. This full-color collection of absurd and amusing signs brings these literary gems home to enjoy.
