How much did Hemingway travel in his lifetime?
To say Ernest Hemingway was a worldly traveler in his lifetime is quite the understatement. Before the age of twenty-five, Hemingway had seen Italy, Paris, Spain, Germany, Switzerland, Austria, and Constantinople. In his adult years, he traveled to Africa, Cuba, Hong Kong, Hawaii, and London. Hemingway’s favorite destinations in the United States included Key West, Florida, the Nordquist ranch in Wyoming, and Sun Valley, Idaho. Michael Palin’s 1999 book, Michael Palin’s Hemingway Adventure gives an entertaining account of Hemingway’s travels through Palin’s eyes, as he sets out to retrace the footsteps of the famous author.
