Reset Tarik Lebbadi

Amine always did what was expected of him. He went to the best schools and took the best jobs at the best companies. Society told him that he should be happy, except that he wasn't. It was in India, during a ten days silent meditation retreat, that he had a revelation. He was convinced that if he went to the Amazon and drank Ayahuasca with a Shaman, he would find meaning to this life he found so dull and shallow. He hence embarked on a one-year voyage that took him from Mexico to Patagonia. On the tourist track and off the beaten path, he met strange people with strange ideas that made him question everything he knew. "RESET powerfully captures the beauty of Latin America, its backpacking scene and the metamorphosis that goes through the mind of the long term traveler as he detaches himself from consumerism."
