Overview

This is not your typical travel guide to a particular country, giving you all the information about the best hotels, the best places to visit, and the best places to eat. There is no mention of cultural differences or of what needs to be respected. There are no paid adverts enticing you to visit and ending with a freebie. This is a collection of anecdotes from business trips around the world carried out personally covering all the good, the odd, and the funny situations that can occur. On railways, in hotels, in all-weather situations, in restaurants, and in research institutes. The time period here is at least twenty years ago - so things have changed, and city infrastructures are today totally different. The pictures included are of that time period and today are different. If at all, the pictures represent a snapshot of what it was then.
