Though I\u2019ve alluded to it for months, it\u2019s time to finally let the cat fully out of the bag:<\/p>\n

I\u2019m releasing a brand-new book!!!!<\/p>\n

It took close to two years to write (and was the hardest thing I ever wrote). But, after a million edits, it\u2019s done and ready for the world.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s called Ten Years a Nomad: A Traveler\u2019s Journey Home<\/em>.<\/p>\n

And it comes out July 16th!<\/p>\n

This isn\u2019t another \u201chow-to” money-saving guidebook.<\/p>\n

\"Ten<\/a>The memoir is about my ten years traveling around the world, the lessons I learned, and my advice on being a better traveler. It features stories I\u2019ve never told and goes deeper into my philosophy on travel than I ever have on this blog.<\/p>\n

I wrote this to follow the emotional journey of a trip around the world: getting the bug, the planning, setting off, the highs, the lows, the friends, what happens when you come back \u2014 and the lessons and advice that come with all that.<\/p>\n

Here’s an early review from Kirkus:<\/p>\n

\u201cThroughout his ruminations on how travel affected him, Kepnes interweaves his tales of friends, girlfriends, and great loves discovered among exotic backdrops and how starting a blog (nomadicmatt.com) about his adventures altered the way he traveled. His story is one of heartbreak, self-discovery, and the constant travel itch he had to scratch in order to become the man he was supposed to be. An entertaining, quick read by a man who did what many of us only dream about.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

This is my opus on travel.<\/p>\n

And it\u2019s available now for pre-order<\/a>.<\/p>\n

As with my previous books, I\u2019m offering bundle packages for those people who purchase the book in advance!
