description: So what's it like to be a travel writer? Best job in the world? How do you become one? Does it answer the question of what we are all doing on this planet anyway? " Bright Sun, Strong Tea" is the story of a US Peace Corps Volunteer who went to Turkey as an English teacher and ended up being one of the world's most prominent travel writers. Along the way, Brosnahan starred in a movie, sipped champagne with 'fat capitalists' in the sultan's gilded palace, fell in love at a circumcision party, almost got eaten by wolves on the Iranian border, drank endless glasses of strong tea...and discovered the meaning of life.
