Great gutter analogy…doesn’t work in Hollywood where even if you fall face down you’ll end up looking at the stars should you happen to fall near Manns Chinese theatre…..GO! figure.

You certainly won’t regret it. There is so much to see and experience. I would highly recommend it, the two years I was there were fantastic and it would take a lot for me to swap them.
The trick is to look past the obvious issues there. The way I look at it (this is probably a bad analogy and in no way should you read anything into it about India) is,

If you fall in the gutter you can look at the stars or stare at the turds,

Me, I look at the stars.

Hey Jo,

The photos were taken by us when we visited RYK & the gang and there are bags of examples from all over the world - here in Dubai, Gareth in China and on it GO!’s all watching portable careers from all walks of life…we smell a coffee table book!

These are terrific. Are they really portable careers? I’m not sure the sharpening man could get his bike in the overhead locker of the plane let alone his suitcase …. but these are superb photos. I adore them. Can we collect them all somewhere? I think I feel a book coming on.

Guys, I am away doing some talks on things like Career in Your Suitcase … at the ‘wonderful’ FIGT conference in Houston, followed by a jolly in Vancouver with fellow expat expert who does what I do - http://www.expatexpert.com. I’ll take my camera and see if I get some more examples like RYK’s

See y’all

That’s a great set of photos. It’s amazing how many different ways people can come up with to make money. You might want to reduce the size of those images though, they’re taking a little while to load on the site.
