Over five continents, they met with adventure: Descending to an underground cathedral of salt, following a postcard to a mountain of gods, hiking
the Himalayas. They met locals: The Turkish boy who pantomined a rifle and proclaimed, "Danger for your life!" and Abdul who whispered, "Want to buy a bugging device? I have to get rid of it."
Whether recounting a camel roundup or an Arctic trek, Janet, in her down-to-earth writing style, deliveres an an engrossing travelogue.

Tired of short vacations, Janet and John quit their jobs, shouldered backpacks and decided to explore beyond the edges of their American map. The outcome of their
adventure is A Frog in My Backpack (Stories from a World Adventure) , a vivid, humorous voyage to foreign lands, living with what they could
carry, conquering their fears of the unknown.
Since 1995, Janet H. Anderson has been traveling the world and writing of her adventures. Traveling the world wasn't a once-in-a-lifetime adventure , it was the start of a 'way of life' adventure.
Since this world trip, Janet and John have been through Central America, Russia, Mongolia, China, Tibet, and the list of "where should we go places" keeps growing. When not on the road with backpacks, or
perched in the front seats of their 1972 Volkswagen camper, Janet and John can be
found with a large map unfolded in front of them, pointing to a place they have never been before, exclaiming, "Why don't we go here!"
