It amazes me how many people I have met at nice hotels around the world. Often times when I make it into a new city focused on the seminars and training, I do not even think about the things I am going to learn just from meeting and talking to people from other parts of the world.

When I venture down to the hotel bar, and even just waiting for a cab I tend to learn all kinds of interesting things about the world when striking up conversations with strangers. I have had many good times sharing experiences with people met at hotels from around the globe. It makes me want to have a hotel weekend at home with friends, so we could all forget about the mundane issues at home and just talk and share.
