This is the next book in John’s continuing decade long saga of adventure, travel, romance, business and sales across Africa.
Way before e-mails and nosey cell phones screwed with your mind.
He wrote one report a month, made no phone calls, made his own decisions,
got on with the job, and more.
Here he recounts how he felt; as he journeyed with his Ethiopian/Italian Lady
to some of those old places, where ‘that certain feeling’ somehow slowly seeps inside your mind.
John says it reminds him of his unexplainable feelings when he fell really, really, in love.
Ageless, virtual space linking through, into one’s feelings, way before we started using those two words, maybe, maybe.
Africa in the 1960’s was a continent newly ‘Freed from Colonialism.’ John was a white, British, expat., “An old Colonial.”
Designated as ‘Market Manager, Africa,’ he traveled though some 20, out of the then 42 African countries selling his UK company products.
This 2nd book goes where few people have been privileged to go, deep into Ethiopia , a country off the tourist map. John gives insights, shy of modern political correctness, of how life was actually lived.
You smell the wind in his descriptions and acknowledge the truth of his experiences.
