HONG KONG & SHANGHAI: The Best in a Week

I have been traveling globally on business for over 30 years, with millions of air miles, multitude of hotel nights and a cornucopia of meals and drinks that can be simply characterized as a mosaic of tantalizing knowledge, flavors, colors, and textures.It was, and still is a great experience, one that I want to share with you.The uniqueness is not only to be able to travel and conduct business in a variety of places, but it’s the framework within which this occurs. The many cultures and a variety of individuals came together as new discoveries that I have experienced in due course.These remain in one’s memory for years to come. They become a synonym and the signature of the place and another data point in our life data base of experiences.On several occasions I found myself eager to share what I have discovered and found pleasing with others, fellow travelers, warriors on the road, friends, and family, especially with those who spend weekends away from home in a city and yearn to experience the heart and soul of that place yet in a limited time frame, usually over a weekend.This book is for you fellow travelers. I have included web sites, street addresses and telephone numbers to my suggestions for your easy reach. This book is not meant to be a comprehensive traveler’s guide, nor is it a one size and flavor for all or a universal critic of the place in question but a lighthearted expression of one person’s experience in one place over one weekend.
