Om Oh, and another thing...
Whether you are applying for a job or in conversation with someone new, you will probably be asked about your hobbies and interests. Having penned two books about travelling and work, I thought I should complete the trilogy by confessing to some of the slightly odd things I have done for fun.
These include cycling, which didn't end well: "What was intended to be a stylish wheelie manoeuvre across the loose gravel turned into more of a flying circus demonstration."
You will also discover much about outdoor exploits, including caving, climbing, and long-distance walking.
Travelling for pleasure has its tribulations, too. When the receptionist of the Italian motoring organisation exclaimed, 'Pronto! Pronto!' our friend responded, 'I'm going as fast as possible!' As the tension levels rose higher and higher, it soon became evident that pronto means hello!
Here, you will have another opportunity to read a light-hearted book about all the things I forgot to tell you in TravelWorks and HomeWorks!
