What about spending 24hrs in another time zone?
Thinking, Fast And Slow and How the City of London Works are same of the books I can think of right now but if you're interested in a lot of global affairs and deeper thinking World Order by Henry Kissinger is great. Personally Thinking, Fast And Slow is possibly one of the greatest books I've read, although it's behavioural economics :tongue: 90% of the other books I have are personal finance and investment markets so if interested you can shoot me xD

All the best and enjoy your summer :woo:

Just gonna add that Paul Kennedy's Rise & Fall of the Great Powers is a nice one as well.

£400-500 I think
I really hope you'll be able to complete this Summer Bucket List!
I've got so much to do with Personal Statements and writing my EPQ this summer that I probably won't have enough time to actually enjoy the summer :frown: Ah well at least next year we'll have a nice long holiday to look forward to :colone:

Good Luck!!!
