In this part of my coverage of my trip through Italy and Switzerland, I’ll go through some of the cultural quirks and things that I came across. In some cases it’s funny, in a few others, sad. Mostly amusing.

I’ve finally drummed up the effort to post up my thoughts regarding my recent european trip. I’ve been ever so slack of late, this has been in the works since I got back a few weeks ago but I’ve just not gotten around to it. Actually doing work while at work hasn’t helped at all either.

That’s what I’ve got left before I head on off on my overseas trip. I detailed my accounts of my trip to Penang last time I went and I plan on doing the same this time around. I’ll be gone for a week longer this time and it will be a hell of a lot colder too.

I have often thought that if, instead of the tone they play before making announcements over a loud speaker the announcer should just pipe up, “Penis vagina, penis vagina. The 5:40pm flight to Melbourne on Virgin Blue…blah blah, Thank you.”. I think it would get people’s attention considerably before laying down the reason why you’ve arrested their minds with your opener.
