This is the true story of Franz Wisner, a man who thought he had it all- a high profile career and the fiancée of his dreams- when suddenly, his life turned upside down. Just days before they were to be married, his fiancée called off the wedding. Luckily, his large support network of family and friends wouldn't let him succumb to his misery. They decided Franz should have a wedding and a honeymoon anyway- there just wouldn't be a bride at the ceremony, and Franz' travel companion would be his brother, Kurt.
During the "honeymoon," Franz reconnected with his brother and began to look at his life with newfound perspective. The brothers decided to leave their old lives behind them. They quit their jobs, sold all their possessions, and traveled around the world, visiting sixty countries for the next two years. In Honeymoon With My Brother, Franz recounts this remarkable journey, during which he turned his heartbreak into an opportunity to learn about himself, the world, and the brother he hardly knew.
史上最悲情的真實蜜月旅行！帶出一段淚水與歡笑交織的奇幻之旅！
當你正準備參加自己的婚禮，接受眾親朋好友的祝福，
度蜜月的地點選好了，飯店、機票也都訂好了，
只是……新娘烙跑了！
你該怎麼辦？
這個男人沒有取消婚禮，仍依照原計畫現身婚宴現場，向眾親朋好友說：「我不結婚了！我很好，只是很想哭！」在一場杯盤狼籍的、沒有新娘的婚宴之後，他決定和自己的弟弟去哥斯大黎加度蜜月，重溫那段哥倆好的兒時歲月。他這才發現，原來他的弟弟比他想像中的更了解他；而他卻一點也不了解他的弟弟。於是，一段奇妙的旅程，讓他走出了「被拋棄」的陰影，發現了兄弟之情，更找到自己的人生目標。
( 本書中譯本 跟我老弟度蜜月 由高寶出版
I have just finished a book that one of my students recommended ,and she lent it to me ..... it's in Chinese , I am now trying to find the book in English ....
The ideas and logic in this book are very similar to the other book I have read - The present , which I really like .... It's basically tells you to focus on the present .. to do what you believe in ....
I was having this conversation with a friend of mine , we think what we learn from these two books can be applied on relationships ... it takes a loft of courage to love and be loved .... if you see someone that you truly believe she/he is the one for you , then don't hesitate ... do not worry about what will happen in the future , or be dwelled on past regrets ... just focus on the present .... don't just sit there doing nothing and wait for luck to come to you , you must create one yourself ... focus on doing what you should do , then good luck will come to you .... but when you see a chance , don't be afraid... like the movie I watched on HBO last night " You have come so far ... there is no reason for you to give up now ... "
弟二本書是我一個學生借我的 他推薦給我 是中文版 我正在試著找英文版
這本書中談到的的觀念及邏輯其實跟另一本我喜歡的書-禮物 很類似 基本上是告訴你去專注於現在 去做你你認為是對的
我那天跟一個朋友討論這個 我們認為從這兩本書學到的其實也可運用在感情上 去愛人與被愛是需要很大勇氣的 如果你遇到一個對象你真心相信他是你的真命天子 天女 那請別猶豫 別去擔心未來可能會發生的事 或老是活在過去的悔恨中 只要專注再現在 千萬不要只坐在哪裡什麼事都不做就等好運降臨 你必須去創造運氣 專注在你應該做的事 自然好運會跟著來
當運氣機會來時 也別忘了給自己一點勇氣 就像昨晚我看的 一部電影中說的 " 你已經好不容易走到這裡了 沒有理由現在放棄 "
