For use when he’s not personally available, Robert developed a series of ten guidebooks to explain his favorite destinations to curious visitors. Focusing on history, architecture & current events, these PDF guides allow you to take his knowledge & teaching style along with you. Explore Sevilla, Lisbon, Alcobaça, & Buenos Aires below:

Sevilla

Sevilla, Endless Mile, guides, PDF, Spain, España

Certain images immediately come to mind about Sevilla… good weather throughout the year, flamenco, religious festivities, bullfighting, charm & a certain chispa are all proud trademarks of the city. But there’s so much more: a seafaring past that brought trade from the Americas & merchants from around the globe, a producer of ceramic goods that influenced world design for centuries & two stunning Expos that gave the city a new life.

The Regionalist Architecture guide reveals Sevilla in fascinating detail:

Lisbon

Lisbon, Lisboa, Endless Mile, guides, PDF, Portugal

One of the most visually stunning of all European capitals, sunlight reflects off the Tejo River onto pastel buildings stacked high among several hills. Amazing views are everywhere… if you can survive the hike up! Unafraid to mix a bit of the modern along with its stunning Baroque past, the city remains pleasantly lived in, homey & welcoming —at least outside the now overrun Baixa.

The following guides reveal Lisbon in fascinating detail: Azulejos, Mosteiro dos Jerónimos & Catholic Heritage.



Mosteiro de Alcobaça

Portugal, Alcobaça, mosteiro, Endless Mile, Robert Wright, PDF, guide

At the junction of two rivers on a former frontier, Cistercian monks used know-how, determination & prayer to create the most influential monastery in Portugal. Kings sought burial here, & tragic lovers Pedro & Inês rest in peace face-to-face inside. But after almost 700 years, the national government sent monks packing. Their story, along with how the site has been restored & repurposed, is revealed in fascinating detail:



Buenos Aires

Buenos Aires, Endless Mile, guides, PDF, Argentina

With an urban area of almost 13 million people —32% of the nation’s population— Buenos Aires is an urban explorer’s paradise. Its grid street plan is easy to navigate, remarkably flat, & the city’s immense size urges walkers to continue on & on. Buenos Aires experienced a long, overdue rebirth after the 2001 financial crisis & its charm continues to bring tourists back… even if economic troubles continue.

Guidebooks available: Recoleta Cemetery, Plaza de Mayo, a discounted bundle of those two guides together, Art Nouveau, Once/Calle Paso & Domes (this last one free as a sample of our style).



It’s easy to see what makes Endless Mile publications unique: affordable guidebooks written by an experienced guide. Robert would love to show you around!
