When Christopher Hunt set off in search of Vietnams notorious Ho Chi Minh Trail, he hardly expected to end up on a rickety, Russian-made motorcycle navigating 5,000 kilometers of paths rarely traveled by tourists and on roads missing from maps.
Christopher Hunt was born in New York City and grew up in Beirut. He graduated from Dartmouth College and the London School of Economics before working as a staff reporter for the Wall Street Journal and the Economist. Author P. J. O'Rourke said of Hunt, "It is the job of the travel writer to have an awful time, and Christopher Hunt is an expert in his profession."
