House, J.D. has based the title on the alternative means of arriving at the Inca City of Machu Picchu. Travelers must choose between a comfortable and speedy train or a slow and demanding path. Most people walk that twisting trail because they cannot take or choose not to take the express train. The meandering route on foot changes the traveler by a meaningful and more challenging journey, which the train could never provide. In life, even those "on the express train" in some areas cannot ride the railcar all the time. The winding path makes all the difference.Direct, decisive, and compassionate, Matthew M.

House, a former teacher and tutor, practices family mediation and motivational coaching in Portland, Oregon.ADVANCE PRAISE FOR TWO WAYS TO MACHU PICCHU"Too many people are content with their lives when you can actually make yours better, and Matthew House helps show how."
