Only his intrinsic curiosity about Chinese culture and about himself drives him on, to keep trying in the tense classroom, to trust his instincts in the frenetic and dishonest street markets, and to make new friends from all walks of life.

Moments later saw that killer body on the other side of the stage. So I went round and invited her down. Her name is Aurora and she is 25. No children, hence the killer body. Slim waist, full breasts, height 4’11”. She was hands on straight away, massaging my hands and arms and...

Yokohama hits different. It's a waterfront city just thirty minutes from Tokyo, but very much its own world. It's easygoing, free-swinging, even a bit decadent. Yokohama received Japan’s first foreign influences, and it started everything from Japanese jazz to the fashion of Plastic Love. At the same time, Yokohama is a throwback to an older Japan. Sleepy 1960s soda shops that simply couldn’t stay in business in Tokyo still thrive in Yokohama, as do the octogenarians who patronize them. And for the price of a capsule hotel in Tokyo, you can stay in a nice three-star place in Yokohama. ...

India, the land of rickshaws, rajas, roti, and more. It's both a wonderful and in some cases, challenging and stressful country to visit. In spite of some harrowing experiences there, India occupies a place near to my heart.

This is the diary of a 32-day stay in a Buddhist monastery near Kathmandu. While searching for a more fulfilling life and needing to think about himself, a 36-year-old economist from Cologne, Germany, devotes himself to Buddhist doctrine. With a certain degree of skepticism, but open to something new, the meditations lead him to the limits of his own consciousness and shatter the basic patterns of his thinking.

Quando il mercante veneziano tornò nella Repubblica Serenissima, i suoi racconti destarono interesse e meraviglia.
