W: Welcome, Mr. Johnson. First, I’d like to ask you a few questions about your background. Did you go to school in India?
M: Well, my parents returned to England when I was only five, so I started school in England actually.
W: And how did you like it? Your education, I mean.
M: Looking back, I rather liked it. I didn’t care much about the uniforms, but I hated language classes, especially my Latin class.
W: OK. What did you do all the time while you were travelling? I mean how did you support yourself?
M: Well, while I was in Egypt after the army, I got a job with an English newspaper, so I had some experience in writing and when I started travelling, I just continued to write, you know, travel articles and that sort of thing. And that was the beginning of it all. I’ve been writing travel pieces for magazines, and of course, my guide books ever since.
W: How many books have you written?
M: About 14 all together.
W: And you have a new book out called The Asian Express. Could you tell us a bit about that?
M: Yes, of course. It’s all about travelling through Asia by train. You see, two years ago, I started this trip all by train.
W: That sounds a little uncomfortable.
M: Sometimes it was, but in general, I loved it. It’s truly a marvelous way to see the various countries and to get to know the people. Much better than airplanes, I think.
W: I see, well, thank you so much, Mr. Johnson. And good luck on your future travels.
M: Thanks.
