Live vicariously through Mike Taylor as he recounts his tales of leaving Corporate America for a teaching position in a small town in Hungary. Feel the angst of breaking the golden handcuffs, the excitement of meeting the students and new friends, the joy of traveling about Europe, and the humor of a day-to-day existence in a foreign culture.

You'll laugh and sympathize with him as he:

- Discovers the eccentricities of the locals, such as the Ukrainian physicist who drops by regularly for drinks and the aging Peace Corps volunteer who sings show tunes at all hours of the night.
- Visits surrounding countries and finds that Hungary has no monopoly on unusual customs. Running through labyrinths, peeing in Dracula's bathroom, and jumping onto moving trains are all par for the course.
- Learns about himself, his relationship with his girlfriend, and his place in this strange, wonderful world.

Anyone interested in travel, teaching, Europe, or getting out of the rat race will enjoy these witty and perceptive passages.
