    About this ebook

    The author survives with odd jobs in Tokyo, celebrates Christmas in Rio and learns that fat women are sexy - in Jamaica.
    He discovers the charms of freezing Helsinki, experiences warlike conditions in Haiti and ekes out $200 for a bottle of bottom-shelf whiskey in Alaska.
    He explores the secrets of lobster fishermen in Maine, assists in a cockfight in Puerto Rico and comes across a Turkish pearl in Brooklyn. 

    "A fun look at the world."
    "Want to go to exotic places? Read this first!"
    "Full of funny encounters with real people from around the globe."
    (Reviews from Readers)

    The travelogues in this book were commissioned by German NPR and broadcast on the radio. The author adapted the manuscripts to a literary format and added photos.

      Let’s Say

      Oct 7, 2022

      I magine a sticky, early August morning, around three o’clock. It is dark, the moon blocked by clouds, no streetlights, a siren in the distance, medics running to a heart attack. Imagine a man out on a bike or walking a sick dog, or maybe a woman who
