By Matthew McConaughey

The actor Matthew McConaughey is quite the introspective guy. He really marches to his own drummer and was willing to give up millions of dollars in “rom-com” movies just so he would not be bored. He has taken off in an RV and drove around the country, sped off to the Amazon (which he thought at one point was in Africa), and then he eventually went to a remote site in Africa…just to explore himself.

He is a thinker and a person who is on a mission to improve himself in anyway he can…all while doing it his own way.

Fun book to read and I have more respect for Matthew now than I did before.
