Traveling USA

In the last few days, motor buffs have been arriving in Tokyo in their tens of thousands, as the 40th Tokyo Motor Show has returned to the Makuhari Messe in Chiba City, 40km from the Japanese capital.

The show is hosted by the Japan Automobile Manufacturers Association (JAMA) and is a recognised international show by the industry’s leading body, the Organisation Internationale des Constructeurs d’Automobiles.

The most important lesson I learned in India is that (for better or worse) human beings can adapt to anything.

A recent survey found that travel information sites and queries for directions and maps are among the most popular Internet searches. And there’s certainly no lack of sites, with everything from virtual tours of the hotel room you want to book, right through to the discount vacation broker.
