Patrick Leigh Fermor
A British man who died just last year, after travelling for most of his life.
This morning I read a review of his biography by Artemis Cooper, in the guardian newspaper. He sounds like a fascinating, adventurous and exciting character, and I'm already on the lookout for his books, A Time of Gifts, and Between the Woods and the Water, which I've been advised are great material for those who want to read stories and learn about other people's travel experiences.
