This book is a compilation of many of my working trips around the world. All the stories are true. it is more than a travelogue; describing some of the work I did, but also commenting on the various cultures in the countries I visited. Looking back at the opportunities my career has given me, sometimes I have to "pinch myself" and ask, "Did I really do all of this?" Many traveling businesspeople hate their nomadic life, but not me. Other than a few minor glitches (and the increased airport security after 9/11/2001) here and there, I enjoyed my travels, my work, and the wonderful people I worked with and met because of these travels. I still enjoy it.
