Travel, humor, romance, diverse cultures, and a fascinating career Jas is a memoir unlike any other. Jas Singh is a globetrotting health and safety expert whose implausible journey from a dusty village in Northern India to the pinnacle of the consulting profession is a story of inspiration, sadness, intrigue, joy, romance, and a fair bit of wonder. These stories are remarkable reflections on his life and experiences.  Stories include:  Jeeto - The Uncut Diamond A rustic, uneducated, and beautiful village girl who dreams of marrying a college graduate and going to America. Silk Pajamas Shanghai hotel lounge hostesses will go out of their way to make travel weary foreigners feel welcome. Alana Does Not Live Here Anymore Delivering gifts to a Jewish family in the darkness of a Moscow apartment complex is risky business.  Terre Haute, Indiana Herb Mossner is a quick-witted super-nerd with irreverence for just about everything.
