DUMPING MATERIAL, Aren’t you?

The rational girl puts a guy on probation for about 3-6 months before she can decide what to do with him. This is to accord her royal self ample time to experience the glam and scam he has to offer. In the end, someone is banked while another is bagged (into a trash bag).The latter may have invested in flowers, cards and candy but still got tossed. Well, sometimes guys it is about your small bad, disgusting habits.
 

The Tilapia Guy

The Tilapia fish always has its eyes wide open. Occasionally, it has its mouth open too, to take in air. Nobody likes to be in love and suspect that their soul mate is anything different from a mammal.

Heading for a kiss with your mouth wide open is scary to the recipient. It looks like you are on a swallowing mission. These kisses always end up being gross and up to nose level. It is worse if you make it happen with your eyes wide open.

“The idea of a good kiss is to get lost in it not look lost by it!”Cindy Beyene (LEFT) explains.

“My ex-boyfriend’s was so bad! He took in half my nose. I was always suffocating. He was the most handsome chap I ever had. Buuut, I didn’t want to die!”

You are also up for eviction if you sleep with your mouth and eyes (slightly) open. I have not heard of a person who enjoys waking up from a bad or good dream to find a zombie next to them. Have you?

The Farting Master

Farting is healthy, yes, but when done in privacy. You are out if you fart in the lift, in town, in a meeting or on a date.

The foul ones are the worst. The smell is dense so it lingers on for a longer period. It welcomes those who come by 15 minutes later.

Mumbua, in her 40’s, narrated to me how Indians have the tendency of dong it anytime, anywhere.

“My boss would let it out regardless of who was in his office or walking behind him.”

She has worked with them in various companies in Nairobi.

“I’m yet to meet a different one!” 

She admits that most Indians are handsome .This trend, however, is such a turn off.

“This is in the office, how about at home? This guy will drop bombs. Skunk bombs!”

In this era of proliferation of grenade attacks in Kenya, the last thing you need is explosions in the house. It is freaky and sickening.

Moreover, have you realized how the body of the people with the habit of farting all the time gets a permanent odour similar to that of their fart? Who wants to keep a guy who smells like fart all the time?

The Hog

Your table manners is lacking while your appetite is infinite. These ones sip on drinks so loudly especially hot drinks. Remember how you grandmother does it? Their chewing style is horrendous .All the neighbours know your meal times!

The guy talks with food in his mouth. Those seated next to you, in a restaurant may be, will definitely have involuntary donation of chewed bits of food from his ‘chewer’ to their plates. You are getting that plus saliva.

The worse part is that he is always eating. He never gets satisfied. The Bible deplores greed.

 “Be not among drunkards or among gluttonous eaters of meat, for the drunkard and the glutton will come to poverty, and slumber will clothe them with rags,” advices Proverbs 23:20-21.

Ill table- mannered guys will always make their girls wish they were on the date with the waiter instead. You are definitely out!

Leon Kamamia (20-25) from Mount Kenya University sold out the guys. He said that guys who eat a lot are “ocha guys”. (Uncivilized). They want Ugali after Rice claiming that the latter does not satisfy. This is greed and biased mentality.

Mercy Sewe (18-20) from the University of Nairobi explains that man is to err.

“Correcting the man is a viable option.”

 However once it ceases to be an issue between the two of you but a social bother, he has to go.

“He will be a source of embarrassment.”

 She does not want to have to make excuses to not be with him in public events.

Cecilia Kavita, a psychologist in Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society (HIAS) agrees that such behaviours are a nuisance. She adds, “The difference in people’s behaviours is determined by their social background.”

 In the minds of most them, their bad habits are okay. It is a hard ball game to try to bend an old tree.

“When you find yourself in a relationship with such a man, it is either you put up with it or let him go.”

Away from home, Deborah Ann Burns stabbed her boyfriend Willie Butler for farting. This was in May 2013, in Florida. They couple had been in love for six years. They had an argument over money and when Willie broke the wind, she head for an eight inch knife and gave him his due.

 Men you do not want to end up murdered. Style up.

Hero in Africa

The slogan of the DNDinitiative must be :

“Vaccinate the poor to protect the rich. Africa vaccinated to protect the rest of the world.”

as suggested by Dr Augustine Kadima, coordinator of the HAT platform in Democratic Republic of Congo.

The DNDi was established in 2003.It focuses on developing and delivering new treatments to combat poverty related neglected diseases. 

The founders were public and private institutions such as :

• Medecins Sans Frontiers (MSF/Doctors without Borders)
• Oswaldo Cruz Foundation (Brazil)
• Indian Council for Medical Research (India) 
• Kenya Medical Research Institute (Kenya) 
• Ministry of Health (Malaysia) 
• Institute Pasteur (France) 
• Special Programme for Research and Training in Tropical Diseases (WHO-TDR) 

Their line of duty involves :

• Development of pills to substitute injections for the patients  far from the hospitals or medical care.
• Synchronization of efforts from  biotechnological areas, ministries of health, non-governmental organisations public and private research institutions, in various countries. 
• Decentralization of roles to make work easier.
• Training local researchers while building or improving their  labs and clinics. 
• Facilitating open sharing of scientific knowledge, data and technology rights.

They have already developed six new treatments for the neglected diseases in Africa.They include:

•  2007>Malaria ASAQ- Artesunate/ Amodiaquine Combination Therapy. Has since been distributed to 32 countries. 
• 2008>  ASMQ (Artesunate/Mefloquine Combination Therapy for Malaria. 
• 2009>NECT (Nifurtimox-Eflornithine Combination Therapy for sleeping sickness. Available through World Health Organisation in all countries where the disease occurs. 
• 2010>SSG and PM (Sodium Stibogluconate and Paromomycin Combination Therapy .Is for Kala azar in East Africa and Asia.
• 2011>The Benznidazole paedriatic form was  developed by the Brazilian public pharmaceutical lab .

The grind is still spinning as DNDi aim at developing 11 to 13 new treatment by 2018.There are more than seven neglected diseases in sub Saharan Africa. The title ‘neglected’ arose from the fact that the affected are the poor, marginalized, neglected population of our society.

There is need for more countries to engage in the fight against the diseases in Africa. Dr. Bernard Pecoul, the director of DNDi, explained that out of the many neglected diseases in Sub-Saharan Africa, there are 1.2% new Chemical Entities for them but only 0.4% clinical trials.

Also,Dr. Hiiti B. Siilo, the Director General of Tanzania Food and Drugs Authority (TFDA), expressed concern over the gap in countries involved in the post market surveillance of the quality of drugs. 

“Only 10 countries are involved since only they have expressed interest world wide.”

DNDi is doing a good job,seemingly.Africa has a hero.All that's left is for our institutions to strengthen the network.

NEGLECTED DISEASES IN AFRICA

Cutenous Leishmaniasis lesions

Sleeping sickness

Also known as Human African Trypanosomiasis .It is spread by the bite of a tsetse fly and can be asymptomatic for years. When it crosses the brain it causes brain damage or even death if untreated. A painful spinal tap is done on patients to determine stage and treatment. Sadly, the oral drug for it is still in the early or late stages.

Kala azar disease,

 Also Visceral Leishmaniasis, is a parasitic disease spread by sand flies. It affects about 40000 in Asia and Africa and kills 10% of the victims annually. It causes bouts of fever, weight loss, spleen and liver swelling and anaemia. Its co-infection with HIV growing problem already existent in about 35 countries. 

The skin related form of kala azar is called Cutenous Leishmaniasis. It causes ostracism, disfiguring lesions on skin leaving grotesque scars and life long scars. The drugs were reported to be very toxic.

The Filarial parasitic worm disease 

Causes river blindness, elephantiasis and African eye-worm. It afflicts 168 million people .The first two cause long term suffering chronic disease with life long disabilities swollen limbs or swollen genitals. The eye itches severely. The preventive treatment cycle can last from 4 to 15 years and can even cause severe reaction given to people with combination of all the diseases at the same time.

The Chagas Disease 

Transmitted by the bite of a kissing bug or mother to child blood transfusion. It is more serious in children. The patients ultimately die in early adulthood. When chronic it causes heart damage or severe digestive system damage. There is need for more treatment options because the pill available is for adults which are split into 8 or 12 pieces for children. There is risk of mistake in dosage. There is also no way of telling if one is sufficiently cured.

 Paedriatic HIV 

 The causes are well known to the public.The mule-headed main issue is  drug resistance. The mothers can pass on the resistance to their babies.HIV also comes with Tuberculosis. HIV Drugs are proving to be resistant to the T.B ones. 

Dr .Tom Ellman, the Director of MSF HIV/TB projects in the South Africa’s Medical Unit criticized how ARV’s are being seen as the answer to all HIV problems. Still there are 3.4 million children infected and 230 000 of them die eventually. “This means that only 28% of them get access to treatment the rest die by the age of two,” he said.

“The problem is that finding most of the victims is hard until they are about 5-14 years old .50% of these eventually die. Some have developed resistance to the drugs which has been passed on from their mothers.”

It turns out that  the older a child gets the higher the percentage to resistance of drugs; 0-5 years 15% resistance,10-14 have 25% resistance whereas 15-19 have 36% resistance. 

Protease inhibitors  availed for children in form of syrups, are  in bulk, laden with alcohol, and dependent on refrigeration hence unfavorable. 

Efforts for change:

DNDinitiative developed a substitute Sprinkle method drug which is already in Chad and Congo .It is heat stable , palatable, affordable to many ,adapted for use at hospital level and four in one. However it is single dose that has to be mixed with food, milk or water has a bad taste due to the LPV/r plus 2NRTIs hence need for improvement.However, “Better drug being studied in South Africa for research and development as a 2014 project,”Dr. Ellman confirmed.

Collaboration with WHO which has improved standardization of the quality of products by DNDi. The Pre-market surveillance techniques offered by WHO are credible as per the 2011 Post market Surveillance report.

“Products by WHO are of good quality safe and properly assessed,”added Hiiti B. Siilo, the Director General of Tanzania Food and Drugs Authority (TFDA).

Collaboration between the European Medicines Agency (EMA) and WHO has allowed some products to go through Article 58 

Marie-Helene Pinheiro, the principal regulatory advisor of EMA, mentioned that  products of complex generic factors such as pericoital contraceptives called for additional collaboration with the National Research Agencies (NRA’s).They cannot go through  Article 58.

RESEARCH IN AFRICA

“Health research is increasing in quality and quantity in Africa.”

This was the message of hope by Dr. Mickael Maganga; the Head of the Africa office of the European and Developing Countries Clinical Trials Partnerships (EDCTP).It was during the celebration of 10 years of excellence of DNDi in June, 2013.

He went on to explain how Africa’s research and regulatory bodies are doing a commendable job. First, the ethics and Regulatory reviews bodies have increased.

Few examples include the Tropical Disease Research (TDR), the Swedish International Development Agency (SIDA) and Department for Research Cooperation (SAREC), the European Union, the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, the International Clinical Epidemiology Network (INCLEN), the Fogarty International Center of the US, National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the Welcome Trust. This has led to better governance and accountability for health projects. Operation is more organised.

Other initiatives:

• Courses on ethics are being offered. We have the South African Research Ethics Training Initiative (SARETI) and West African Bioethics Initiative (WAB).
• Capacity Building is through formal education projects networking long term and short term training. “The staffs are even sent abroad in some cases,” confirmed Dr. Ahmed Musa of the Gedaref State Ministry of health and DNDi.
• Online training programmes from TRREE and ERECCA project that allows people to take refresher courses on Good Clinical Practice (GCP).
• A Regulatory pathway formulated by the MARC project –AVAREF- was launched in 2006 in collaboration with WHO.
• Operations of the EDTCP Ethics activities are now in 23 countries in Africa They work at institutional and national level. The most successful response is coming from Nigeria ,Uganda and Tanzania with 33, 15 and 13 applications respectively. This can be attested to the theory that the population of an area is equally proportional to   the level of training. It is lowest in Liberia.

The sources of data include Surveys, Clinical trials, Routine check up, Pre-trial population and evaluation. The variables include Anthropometry, Spirometry, Cardiovascular, Biochemical, Age, Psychological status

“These are useful for evaluating products for optimum individual cares and preventing study teams from removing good product from the market and adding bad ones, ”said Dr. Bernhards Ogutu, the Chief research officer at KEMRI.

They are all meant to increase capacity for research in Africa. They are effective so the bodies should be trusted.

Esnart Mwape, The Director of the Zambia Medicines Regulatory Authorities added that the legal frameworks guiding the regulatory authorities are not up to date.

“The NMRA’s are also poorly funded therefore semi-functional. This leads to poor or even non-existent co-ordination”

It could be the reason why Samvel Azatyan, the Manager of the Medicines Regulatory Support Programmes, WHO, mentioned that “90% of Africa NMRA’s lack capacity to guarantee quality safety and efficacy which results in lack of medicine affordability and availability.”

This leads to financial strains since they raise funds from the resources they provide which means they give much and retain little.

More challenges include shortage of skilled human resource, poor infrastructure, poor co-ordination between ethics, and regulatory structures and donors lack of awareness of gaps and potential and inadequate collaboration.

We can only hope that in the next years, things change for the better.

MIGRATING TO AMERICA

Moving from one place to another can either be a smooth or rough sail. How you adapt can entirely be determined by your background. The lifestyle in which you were brought up moulds your level of hard work, character and reasoning. It also determines your perception of the environment around you. A shift in culture is hard on everyone. It is especially harder for anyone shifting from a third world country into America. The latter is very developed. There are many cultures .
The occasion determines what to do or say. The rules for living change because you relate to different people of different cultures every day. Misinterpreted communication or behaviors can land you in trouble. If it is your first time in America, you probably smiled all through your flight. Some things you should consider to keep you smiling past the airport in America include:

House ownership

Foreigners can buy a house with or without the intention of living in America permanently or temporarily. Hot spots such as the area near the Greater Orlando are more expensive. Housing gets cheaper as you head towards the coast of New York down to Boston. The process is every transparent however you may need and attorney review all the contracts involved just to be safe. “In real terms, property prices in the US are back to where they were around the turn of the millennium, with prices in some states 70 per cent below their 2006 peak,” says Ray Withers of Property Frontiers, a property consultancy.  Gated communities have come up .A good bargain can earn you a four-bedroom house for only £120,000 or even a three-bedroom villa with a pool for £95,000. Do not shy away from investing in a grand home in America.
Safety in America
“Most Americans are very polite, particularly outside of the big cities. However, outside of the big cities, everyone owns guns. Inside the big cities, almost everyone owns guns.”  These are the words of Japanese -Jaster Mereel -who recently toured America. According to the ATF 95 percent of the 5.5 million guns manufactured in America are sold domestically .Only 47 percent of these have registered having guns in their households according to Gallup.CNN Reports in December 2012 show that 50% of the guns on Earth are owned by Americans http://www.theatlanticwire.com/politics/2012/12/guns-in-america-statistics/60071/ You cannot take this for granted. Consider the recent mass shooting in Connecticut. President Obama is trying to prevent this from happening again. However this is a culture that has long been. Looking at it from that perspective, you cannot wait for Mr. Obama to bend an old tree. Be polite and stay out of trouble.

Matters of the stomach in America.

The biggest population of cancer victims is in America among other developed regions. Findings by the Oral Cancer Foundation state that every day 100 new individuals are diagnosed with cancer in the US alone. This has been attributed to obesity and diet. If you are a smoke and take alcohol you are more prone. They are concentrated with either fat and sugar or both. Look at the picture. Don’t you just want to have the American Burger whole at once? Slow down tiger. This contains 30 -142 grams of cholesterol. It only takes 240 grams to cause heart conditions and kidney conditions. You may have come from regions where burgers are not made .Enjoy them once in a while. However exercise adequately. Other killer combos include: http://foodmatters.tv/articles-1/the-30-worst-foods-in-america-beware

Please note though that the stomach does get idle a lot of times. To silence it we often choose to buy something for the road .Well, consider this a taboo in Canada. You do not eat on the street. No one can ask you of course but there is no point in looking misplaced and greedy. Watch your eating habits in America.

Saluting an American.

You have just spotted your long lost friend across the street. Most of us would rush and fly at them with kisses and hugs. Not to Latino Americans! Women greet with a slight nod whereas men use a firm handshake. The men are not to greet a woman unless she stretches out her hand. You can feel free to woman up during such a situation.

Fitting in and feeling at home in America may take some time. Natives of Europe will have to deal with the grammatical difference whereas Asians and African handle a cultural turn of 180 degrees. Americans embrace change and move on swiftly. This is how most industrialized countries are as they are. Knowledge is power. Now that you know, reform. In the end, all will be well.

 Paul (in blue) a native of Jamaica moved from home to work as a deejay in America. This is what he had to say:

“If you came here like me and had a job right away the transition was different but not at all easy. I had to start at the bottom as far as work and had to pretty much start over with the process of school. Coming from a 3rd world country also had its advantages. We tend to work harder and can survive on what some may describe as nothing. We were not accustomed to most of the conveniences of a first world country. We tend to be able to work our way up faster than someone who's had opportunities in abundance and do without what most here can’t.”

MIGRATING TO ASIA

Asia is a continent where culture is still a very vital and integral part of life. Western culture has encroached and even swallowed up most of the cultures. Asia has not been spared either.   However look at Asia as the land of tough people. They fought for the survival of their beliefs and way of life. This is why we see Muslim women wearing jeans and vests then covering up in Hijabs and Saris. In this way they have embraced the revolution but upheld their norm. It is so necessary that we understand the Asian cultural trends. Issues you should know about Asians are like:

House visits around Asia

 Guests are precious. It is for this reason that prior notification and planning has to be done. There is protocol which has to be adhered to. When entering the door do not step on the doorsill.

If you go with your husband he will sit at the head of the table. If alone, you are the one who will seat there. Either way the one who seat at the head must have their back facing the door. If for whatever reason there are many guests and you are considerably the main guest then you have to seat on the left hand side of the host. I know we all love that big comfy boisterous look of the head seat but in Asia you will have to tame your preference. Sorry.

It is okay to be ‘just passing by’ if delivering a gift like taking pies to make friends with the neighbors. These gifts are usually accepted after you insist that they accept it.Take no offence. Look at it as humility.

Gifts you cannot bring include clocks, cut flowers and umbrellas since they are associated with funerals and death. Asia is a continent of superstitious people. Fruits are good presents. If some are brought back, it means they like you.

 Eating mannerisms

Bring up bowls as close to you as you wish. Open your mouth if you like. Laugh, enjoy as you chew as well. It is acceptable here. Do not finish all the food on your plate or even worse lick it for Heaven’s sake!

 Handling the poor in Asia

Do not stare at the less fortunate. Asia is the most populated continent with 4.2 million people. http://www.prb.org/.Poverty is therefore rampant. To them missing the basic needs is almost a norm. When you show astonishment, pity, dismay, surprise, among other undesirable sentiments, it seems condescending .It is also considered a sign of humiliation and arrogance. When you are associated with this you are definitely losing friends and making none as well. Watch your way to loneliness or loneliness will watch your way to it.

Apologizing to Asians

Man is to err. You do make new mistakes daily. Apology may be the food for a peaceful soul. When you find yourself in a situation which needs apology while living in Asia, just tap the person’s shoulder then tap your own forehead. Simple!

Do the Wai

This is their greeting whereby you put your hands together as though in prayer position then make a slight bow. The higher the position of your hands while bowing the greater the respect conveyed. This does not mean that you raise your hands above your head. You may also just do a slight nod and a bow.

Head coverings

Women are asked to wear long sleeved clothes and skirts reaching the ankle level when going to church. Abayas are the best since they are like a robe that comes in many colors and from neck to toe. In some areas no one may ask you for not wearing a head cover as a women. However the glares are nothing to ignore. They can be such a massacre. If this can make you uncomfortable, please cover your head.

Working in Saudi Arabia

Their week runs from Saturday to Wednesday. You are used to being behind the computer or having the secretary run around Monday through to Wednesday .Well here is a breather for you. Hard work is appreciated but working as per their norms.The ‘party’ begins on Wednesday in Saudi Arabia.

Prayers

Most of the regions are Islam culture therefore they pray 4-5 times every day. Roughly after every 3 hours. Prayer time is announced by a loud slow song done in Islam via a loud speaker. The people respond by either heading to the mosque or praying where they are. At these times business stops. Please wait for the prayers to end in about 15 minutes. Harassing the vendor to serve you as this is disrespectful to God.

Line between singles and the married

In some hotels, there is a section for single people and the married. Each has its distinct section entrance. If you are single the whole world will know. At least the ‘world’ in a hotel. Only bachelors though can go to the ‘singles’ area. This is different as from the trend in many countries where people mix and interact.

The education

Most schools teach in Arabic then English in later grades. For British curriculum there are privets expensive schools yet the pay if considered to be the smallest of all continents. The average worker can earn roughly up to 10,000 SR/month, whereas private school fees does rank from 8000 to 40 000 SR/month. If you have a big family you might want to seriously consider this. However some companies do give benefits depending on who you are in the corporate.

Be rowdy.

Feel free to yell to draw the attention of a waiter. Feel free to push in trains as well. This may feel rough .There are too many people to attend to. You might have to wait forever. Most of the places are also very crowded therefore space really not valued. Push people in trains and yell to call at a waiter.

Entertainment in Asia

You cannot place a glass upside down in a bar in Australia. It shows that you are challenging anyone to a competition. It may be a fist fight, taking of beer or others. It also shows that you are sure you will win. Recreation places are men’s haven away from home for many. Start something you can finish.

Now you know that moving to Asia is not just a case of “Pack your clothes kids we are moving to Asia.”It is more involving than moving to anywhere else in this world since most destinations in Asia still uphold their culture. It is also a land where patriarchy is followed. This means that the males are seen as the heads whereas women are inferior. You might want to think about moving to Asia as a woman. This could change how you and your children view gender roles.

MIGRATING TO EUROPE

BANPO BRIDGE

Migrating to Europe can either be a dreadful or magnificent change. This entirely depends on how prepared the cultural difference finds you. Second to America, Europe is one of the very developed destinations on Earth. You must understand that the status of development in a region is directly proportional to the class of lifestyle that the average person lives.

Note also, the most beautiful destinations in the world are found in Europe. It is also the second-least populated continent, Oceania being the last. You are bound to have fun. Hurry and adapt to the lifestyle in Europe. Basic factors that you should consider if migrating to Europe include:

EXPENSIVE LIFESTYLES

Expenses in Europe

Survival is the limit which most people are willing to reach. Adding luxuries to spice up your life in Europe is like jumping off a cliff. You may want to do the math on this list of expenses:
Mortgage £550
Gas £50
Electric £35
Water £20
Phones (mobile and landline) £50
Home insurance £20
Life insurance £20
Car insurance £120
Food £250
petrol £160
Council tax £110
You might land a job in Europe that pays an average wage of £17,000 or £5.50 per hour. You are doomed if you have children, need a pet or want to go on vacation. France, Germany, United Kingdom, Italy and London have been crowned the queens of this economical rip off.

Bad climate

Europe receives sunshine for such a short period of time. This is in line with the findings of a research done by U switch design. If you already have respiratory illnesses, be cautioned. Here people keep warm.

Non verbal cues in Europe

Moving your head back and forth means NO. Lifting your eyebrows means NO in Germany. This is contrary to the perception in many regions.

The A-okay sign of joining the thumb to the fore finger is rude .In Spain or Portugal it is offensive since it communicates that the person is nothing or zero. In Brazil it is equivalent to insulting someone an asshole. This is vulgar.

European Male –Female relations.

Europe is said to have some of the most beautiful women especially the Swedish ones. It could be the reason why men talking to women remove their hats in Sweden and Greece. How honorable! When dining only men open the drinks and pour the drinks. This is only a way of being gentlemen. Do not mistake it for chauvinism.

When it comes to kissing a lover, do it twice with the right cheek first.

Language

English is usually used. Their English is however defined by the strong accent. It is the most conspicuous factor about them. Generally Europeans are said to be very polite and welcoming. They accommodate other people’s culture alongside theirs. You do not have to worry about feeling left out.

The ‘not so polite’ word commonly used is bugger .It  shows surprise or a swearing .This in Europe can favorably be compare to Damn as used in America. Bugger me is therefore not a way of asking you to sodomise anyone. It is just a way of rebuking oneself for having done something really dumb.
Recreation

Flights within Europe are shorter. The majority are away from home experiencing the never ending changes in places such as Denmark, Paris. In some areas it is not allowed to take photographs of graffiti example Spain.
Drinking is allowed here even in the streets. Clubs operate round the clock.
Smoking weed is allowed in Amsterdam.

On the whole, a survey done by The Trip Advisor declared Stockholm the safest, Birmingham the most boring, unromantic city, Athens the dirtiest and Paris the place with the rudest taxi drivers. It was said to be the easiest to find your way around London. Despite the costly lifestyle, if you can afford it fly down to Europe. The beauty, finest of designer wear is not an opportunity that should pass you by. Pack your bags!! The aesthetic face of Europe awaits you!
