“I Probably Should’ve Brought a Tent is about traveling with honesty, beauty, and awkwardness. Erik takes into account where his adventures fall in a long history of human conflict and shifting landscapes. He ventures out to these wild and majestic sites, all the while keeping integrity and humor close.”
—Teresa Lynn Hasan-Kerr, travel writer for Lonely Planet, Refinery 29, Culture Trip, Morocco World News, Coldnoon, Past-Ten, and Wry Times
“I Probably Should’ve Brought a Tent is eloquent, witty, funny, and serious all at the same time. Shonstrom’s book is filled with captivating wilderness stories. He places you directly beside him in his stories and you feel the highs and lows of what he experienced. These stories quickly pull you into his journeys, flying through the pages, and yearning for more at the end! You won’t be disappointed picking this one up off the shelf.”
—Scott Wurdinger, author of Philosophical Issues in Adventure Education and Teaching for Experiential Learning
