So basically, my company won this huge contract. We are going to do roadside assistance service for Michelin, the n°1 tyre manufacturer in Europe.
To do so, we'll need the help of Axa subsidiaries all over Europe.
What I'm going to do is I go to Axa Poland and Axa Czech Republic and train them on how to handle this new contract.
So yes people, this is a business trip.
And yes, I get to spend the weekend in Prague, all expenses paid by my company.

But, I'll be offline mostly until the 12th of March. Also, working with the Polish is fucking hard, they speak English like I speak Chinese.

And last but not least, I now have business card and I'm giving out a strong Patrick Bateman vibe. Those blonde Czech hotties better beware, I might have sharpened coat hanger and some nailgun hidden in my suitcase.

Have fun while I'm gone.

Oh, and no plan for Amsterdam on the World Tour. Seeing you in NYC (now, THAT is part of the World Tour) will be enough.

I'm posting live from Warsaw, taking BX to new territories.
Staying at the Holiday Inn which is quite good.

Tip: Klub Architektu is a great place to have dinner. Reservations probably required.

In Prague? Is it expensive?
Damn it, I just had to go through a one-hour presentation about the business of Michelin in Poland. IN POLISH!!!
I learned a lot, mind you.

In Prague, yes. And it's not that expensive, I remember having a three-course dinner and drinks for €25 a few years back. Prague is cheap like that. :D

I call bullshit. You were probably reading comics under the desk.

Dude, Michelin has 41 service providers in Poland but most of are the south half of the country in the Krakow/Warsaw/Lech area. The North, particularly North East, is far less served, therefore any breakdown there will be a bitch to handle.
Most of the Polish have breakdowns in France and Germany.
The main client is Link Z.O.O. with Dentressangle Poland coming in at close second.
Suck that.

Now in Prague which is full of tourist and so beautiful. I m loving it!

Pics of Prague will be up on Facebook when I get back to Lyon and can be arsed to post them.

Found this Klub Arkitektur restaurant. Obviously enough, it is really close to a Sex Supermarket. No wonder Dutchie was in the area.

And yeah, they do not just have sex shop in here, they have sex supermarket.

What did you buy? Don't tell me you just browsed around. :D

I bought nothing. My stay in Prague crashed down when I fell victim to food poisining on Monday morning.
Spent 2 days in an hospital there but I'm now safely back to France.

I'm supposed to see a capitalist doctor this morning as I don't trust the diagnosis of those bolchevics there.

So, you didn't get that at the restaurant I recommended, right?
