There were some comments trying to understand how and what a taxi driver pays and earns driving in Las Vegas. In addition, comments about tipping and what amount should be given in a tip. I will try to explain as the best I can.
Of all the different companies in the Valley, some are individually owned and some companies have a few taxi company names under one ownership… Continue reading

Well it has been three weeks I have been back in the USA and here are things I have had to readjust to, and thought I would discuss some of them. One this is the language.

At my last post I was still in Inchon, Korea. That was a long experience. There were hotels and rest facilities but keeping on a budget I just walked around or sat at a gate area.
