Postcard From... Nepal

It is day two, and my greatest fear has manifested:

I am climbing Mount Everest, and I am sick.

Postcard From... Budapest

In the first bar we play snooker with Italians. In the second bar we drink ciders with Spaniards. In the third bar, a Russian, an American, a Macedonian and I wax lyrical about our respective homelands.

In the fourth bar, I meet the love of my life.
