This is a story about a guy who was born in a small town in the UK and grew up in a tiny sleepy village in farming countryside. Through a series of coincidences, lots of luck, lots of hard work and I would like to think a set of skills honed over the years, I worked and lived in ten countries across the world, and visited almost fifty in total. But I put it down mostly to lots of very hard work. I subscribe to the adage that your future is what you make it. It is a story of adventures, challenges, opportunities, and romances of a world traveler in the IT industry. I've included a few glimpses into corporate politics in major multinational companies. One of my favorite quotes from back then, from my boss at the time: "I deal with pricks every day I come in here, but it's the assholes I can't stand." I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it.
