In Memoirs of Globetrotters, I write about Asians who have made lives in other countries other than their own viz. America, England, Australia, Italy and Malaysians. Some have left their mother country from an early age following their families on diplomatic postings. I also touched on life in the diplomatic world which I found interesting and which I feel would be interesting to the readers. I also touched on places, some remote some familiar to readers which were their hometowns before they left to venture to faraway places. Their experiences as a foreigner are all mentioned as part of their life overseas. Most of these events happened as far back as in the 1950s. I have categorized the characters under three different groups viz: Children of Diplomats, The Missionaries and The Adventures based on their life stories and experiences. All the stories are true and some heart breaking and it touches on the path of life through the choices we made through their own or was chosen for them. 3
