You meet a range of different people on train trips, and this has been no exception:
Peter +Antonia - American, Father and daughter, well travelled, whole range of business ventures, she is studying international relations at Edinburgh University, he is based n San Francisco
Vicky - Canadian, but seems to have spent last twenty or so years teaching in various parts of Asia
Lynne - a retired Australian croupier/surveillance manager, who spent 12 years in South Africa after going there for 6 months
Daniel - a 50ish New York language teacher who had just finished teaching in a monastery in Tibet
Toni and Pam cousins from New York and Washington state, both well travelled and both understand and have watched rugby matches in US (neither typical American traits)
Dave, personal trainer and ex Olympic weightlifter and accountant wife Rosalind
And of course they had a 43 year old banker to talk to!
