Around the World (Cup) in 21 days

How do you entice someone who does not need a salary and how do you top a World Cup in Hanover or a backpacking adventure in Wales or a salsa rave in Rio De Janeiro?

I don't know and its still a wonder that we have enlisted an old friend whose hobbies include terrorizing the Indian peasants and provoking Italian football fans. And perhaps spent the last 3 weeks living out of a tent on the streets of Germany.

So… he has been persuaded to come back for a 6 month encore performance in KL, in return for some salsa/samba dancing lessons prior to his debut in Brazil. He confirmed on Saturday, arrives on Tuesday and starts work on Wednesday. And he doesn't even have a proper shirt, trousers or shoes yet!

And such is the life of a free spirited man where life-changing decisions are made based on the taste of last night’s beer.

Welcome home... it will be like you never left at all.
