What I DON’T LIKE

Rimini, Italy 2013 42

Pierpaolo & Monica

  • *so sleepy – don’t want to get out of bed
  • **meeting room being used – have to go to press room
  • ***thought interpreter would be like last time – attendees wear headsets for Italian – if not, you listen in English – interpreter in another room – this time interpreter stood next to me and translated – difficult as I had to keep stopping – never got my momentum

FUN-fact – I was in Rimini for the TTG Incontri convention. It is the biggest travel and tourism show in Italy with vendors from all over the world.
