This is a verbatim account of some of the funniest evenings that have happened to me while traveling, in some cases they are also big travel oddities. Like the time I found myself dancing on tables in a Scottish dance hall, or when I lost a dinner, bet with a Korean girl watching a soccer game.

Some of the most fun evenings I have spent with organized groups. Although in these situations, it seems to me that it happens mostly in the early days, when you don’t know each other enough yet.

In the following link , written by a good blogger, there are some tips for meeting people on the road.

For example, the featured photo was taken of me in Matera. It is a town I love and where I have been lucky enough to go three times: once alone, once with a person I no longer got along with, and once with whom I got along very well. So it fell among the most enjoyable evenings the third time; but between the first alone and the second, definitely better the one on my own.
