MV Doulos

Today, Andrew and I brought our preteen to MV Doulos, the world's oldest active ocean-faring passenger ship which is in Port Klang now. It is now owned by the German charity Gute Bücher für Alle E.V. (Good Books for All), and is used as a floating bookshop. With stops in over 500 ports of call, this unique ship has visited more than 100 countries in including Africa, the Americas, Asia, Australia, Europe, the Middle East and many island nations.
