Kenya
John continues his African saga from his Nairobi base camp. A relationship with a young Indian woman produces an unexpected private business. Now we have three different cultures operating under three different sets of old established, traditional, ground rules. How John weaves them together shows a rare understanding of how these rules work. In the process he exposes how differently things 'happen' in other parts of the world. Standard practice here...ignored there...illegal where? Titled as 'Marketing Manager, Africa,' he travelled through some 20 out of the then 42 African countries selling his UK company products. How he survived, how he did business, how he lived, what he saw...how he was welcomed makes for a unique tale.
