Good Morning Atlanta. Oh the glamour

Don't get me wrong, I know I'm lucky to travel the world with work. In the course of earning an honest crust I've been to places far and wide - including Seattle, Tokyo, New York, Istanbul, San Francisco, Hong Kong, Barcelona, Manila, Oslo and Tel Aviv.

I've got to sample cultures, foods and languages I'd never ever have been able to, if it wasn't for work. But the reality is most business travel is quite dull. And given I don't extend trips with personal time off (I'm keen to be back with my family) its just not that glamorous.

This photo sums it all up. The view from my hotel in Atlanta. Might as well be Manchester.
