Produktbeschreibung

It was supposed to be just another exchange trip. He thought life would be easy, but experienced all the difficulties and hardship of an immigrant in a foreign country. He washed cars under the close inspection and shouts of the Slav mafia, watched blood squirt from his hands in a second-rate kitchen, carried couches in warehouses, washed dishes, walked kilometres with more than 10 kg of pamphlets on his back, made deliveries, unloaded truckloads of plasterboards with deranged brutes, panicked over utility bills and even jumped out of windows, Chavo del Ocho style, to avoid landladies... All in the space of six months. The mucking about, which outdid much of his small victories, is narrated with very personal, razor-sharp wit and the desperation of a 21-year-old man, alone, 13 hours from any known person, who resorted to words to forget the problems of a reality he was literally forced to live one day at a time. He was beaten, suffered, and into some trouble; he had fun, laughed and, above all, had an unforgettable life experience. Join him and put your world in a backpack!
