Around the World with NAS Daily: 1,000 Unpredictable Days, Unexpected Places, and Unforgettable People
In 2016, Nuseir Yassin walked away from his desk job and spent the next 1,000 consecutive days travelling the globe. Not the glossy, postcard version of it, mind you. He headed instead for African villages, Indian slums, the gleaming towers of Singapore, and the vast emptiness of the Australian outback, all in search of the people who actually live there. Each day, he posted a single 60-second video to Facebook, building an audience of over 13 million followers hungry for the strange, funny, terrifying, and quietly beautiful moments he kept finding along the way. This book grew out of that project. It's part vivid portrait of some of the world's least-visited corners, part honest reckoning with what connects us all. The writing shifts between punchy observation and genuine tenderness, and the photographs are worth the price of admission on their own. What makes it stick, though, is its central argument: that travelling isn't really about places at all. It's about people. Yassin captures that truth with a directness that feels rare in travel writing, where sentimentality so often gets in the way. If you've ever watched a Nas Daily video and felt something you couldn't quite name, this collection will give that feeling a home.
