À propos de ce contenu audio

*AN INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES AND NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER*

'As the title suggests, Waypoints is a rewarding mix of markers, both personal as he reflects on his life and geographical as he leads the reader along the West Highland Way' - The Scotsman

'A deeply personal and warmly entertaining memoir that fans of Sam - and Scotland - will have a joyful time devouring' - Heat

'From both his walk and his career, the common lesson is the power of persistence.' - The Times

'A pleasure for fans of the author, whisky, and Scotland.' - Kirkus

'Waypoints is a memoir with a difference! I wanted to tell the stories and share the experiences that have shaped me, but to do that I needed to challenge myself and spend some time in my own company, away from the distractions of everyday life. And for me there's no better place to reflect than in the wild Scottish Highlands.'

In this journey of self-discovery, Sam Heughan sets out along the West Highland Way to explore his heritage and reflect on the personal waypoints that define him. The result is a love letter to the wild Scottish landscape that means so much to Sam, and a charming, funny, wise and searching insight to the world through his eyes.

The walk itself is the backdrop for this narrative, which tells the story of Sam's life while exploring his outlook, values and interests. Sam is a figure of fascinating contrasts, a Hollywood star with deep roots in rural Scotland, he's both outgoing and content in his own company. He has strong connections with his fans while recognising the fragility and value of anonymity, and in My Peak Challenge he has created a network that brings people together as they chase individual goals. In his new book, while charting a path through a stunning wilderness, Sam maps out the moments that shaped his views on dreams and ambition, family, friendships, love and life.

Waypoints is a deeply personal journey that reveals as much to Sam about himself as it does to his readers.

Sunday Times in the UK and New York Times bestseller in the US in November 2022.

It is an interesting book if you are a fan of Sam and want to know more about his challenges in his professional and private life. Sam has an entertaining voice so I would recommend the audiobook!

Listening to Sam’s voice tellîng me about his journey through the Scottish Highlands and reflecting on the main waypoints of his life so far, was a great experience. For non native English listeners, it is all the more intense as you have to focus even more to get the message accurately. I was all the more involved in Sam’s story, probably more than I would have, had I been reading the book (which I haven’t received yet). First and great Audible experience.

An inspiring journey

It was a very pleasant read/listen. Funny and inspiring. A good lesson to never give up on your dreams.

I discovered Sam Heughan in Outlander, a tv show I watched in fast-forward. At first, I thought :" He's good looking, like so many other actors." Out of Curiosity, I watched one of his interviews and thought:" He's a good salesman, nothing more. Clearly, he knows how to sell his products." Then, You Tube suggested an interview with Sam on The High Performance Circle. There, I was deeply moved. His life journey resonates with mine. He is simply endearing in many ways. Some people will read this book because they are huge fans of the actor. As for me, I recommend it to those who don't know him and who might be going through a difficult time in their lives, or who are on the verge of giving up a dream or a life project. This book is uplifting.

PS: Apologies for my English; I'm French😅

Beyond Appearances ! An inspiring discovery...
