Meet Your Resident Grumpy Dad
Hello there, fellow travelers and wanderers! Welcome to Grumpy Dad Travel Tales, where business meets pleasure, and everything is an adventure (whether we like it or not). I’m Bulat Hametov, your resident Grumpy Dad, here to share my tales from around the globe.
The Journey Begins
My journey into business travel started with my career, which, lucky for me, has taken me to various corners of the world. I’ve always been excited about every new place I visit, and I’ve made it a point to learn as much as I can about the local culture and people. Over time, I’ve realized that the key to a successful trip lies in preparation, an open mind, and a good sense of humor (because, let’s face it, things rarely go as planned).
Who Is This Blog For?
This blog is for all you ‘Business Traveler Bobs’ and ‘Entrepreneur Emilys’ out there. Whether you’re a seasoned business traveler, middle to senior management professional in a multinational corporation, or an entrepreneur running a startup or small business with international clients, this blog has something for you. And don’t worry, and I promise to keep the grumpiness to a minimum (unless we’re talking about airline food).
What Can You Expect?
Here, you can expect a wide range of content, from insights into business etiquette in various countries, tips for efficient business travel, to personal anecdotes that make a bit humorous. I’ll do my best to post weekly (unless I’m enjoying the sunset in the desert or the beauties of the coral reefs and Mayan Cenotes), so there’s always something new to look forward to.
The Aim of the Blog
This blog aims to help you navigate the complexities of international business communication, prepare for business trips to various countries, and balance work with the pleasures of travel. My hope is that the stories and tips shared here will help you make a good impression, avoid cultural faux pas, and make the most of your business travels.
