Destination Moorhead

Destination Moorhead, offers a uniquely British take on studying at one of America's many college campuses. Thrown in at the deep-end, self-confessed wannabe American Ben Atkinson had never even set foot on a plane before embarking on the three and a half thousand mile journey from the Cathedral city of Lincoln to downtown Moorhead, Minnesota.Now, in his debut travelogue, Ben sets out to answer the questions we're all itching to ask! Just how many lakes are there in Minnesota? How blazin' is the blazin' challenge? On a scale of one to ten, how likely are you to meet the last surviving inmate of Alcatraz? And what's it like to sit at Elvis Presley's piano?Journeying across the Midwest and as far afield as San Francisco, California and Nashville, Tennessee 'Destination Moorhead' is a unique pilgrimage that will remind you of the true eccentricity of American life and the friendly open nature of the people you'll meet there and the stories they have to tell.
