Travel Tales from Exotic Places like Salford is a collection of 31 travel stories. These stories are part memoir and part travelogue. In some places travellers visit, the most memorable moments can be conversations with locals that provide a different perspective either on life in general or on one certain specific item such as a national stereotype.
I travel to see the world’s finest footballer play in front of his home crowd and I am rewarded by seeing him score a sumptuous free-kick. I visit the place in Turkey that will cause historians to rewrite history – would hunter-gatherers really know how to build walls, raise stone monoliths, and lay down waterproof floors? I am assured by a waiter that I won’t like turnip juice because of my nationality.
Travel broadens the mind and does away with some of your prejudices. I hope that in my travels I have managed to create a good impression both of myself and of people from my country. If I have removed some prejudices from other people’s minds then I have done some good.
