Every now and then one of my colleagues, Jan, travels abroad and invariably something so awful it's funny happens to him. Fortunately, he is happy to share his experiences and I'm pleased to be able to give you his latest adventure. Enjoy! 
Hi lovely 
colleagues,
Just back in the office, want to thank you all for the really nice time I had in Shanghai, it was nice to see you all again. Now suffering jet lag. Let me tell u a small 
story that happened to me, I want to share 
something...
The flights were all on time, no delay and all went smoothly, unbelievable!!!
But one day in Xian I maybe ate something wrong but at the end of the 
day I told Gert and Hui, I need to go to my hotel and go to toilet. 
I jumped in a taxi and had to cross my legs hehe, soon as I arrived in the hotel I ran to my 
toilet and.....well u know sat there and the smell was really 
not like roses. I flushed the toilet and then the story began. My toilet 
could not handle it and water didn't flush away, oh my god....... I was thinking 
what to do, then called the house keeper that I had trouble with my toilet and needed 
someone to fix it. 
I felt sooo ashamed when looking at my cute toilet but anyway I need to go again but couldn't go otherwise it will flood on the floor, so after 10 
minutes I called again, told them my room number, (I think it was not even not needed they 
only had to follow the smell hehe) then after another ten minutes they sent the cleaning lady. I pointed her at the toilet, she ran away and said she will 
send a guy to fix it. 
I couldn't wait that long but had to. I still didnt felt 
well and then Gert called me and asked how I felt, during our talk I could feel that I had to 
throw up too and that stupid toilet was still not fixed, what a hell. After I finished the  call I had to run to the bathroom again and the only choice I had was to throw 
up in hand basin. After I did I felt better again but then my sink was blocked too, so now toilet and sink were broken, I really felt sooo dirty. 
Then I put my hand in the sink and took out the thow up stuff because I didn't want the house keeper 
to see I damaged both toilet and sink. It was disgusting but I had to do it. Put everything in a plastic bag just before he rang the bell of my room, I scooped the last bits out of the sink with my hands and then I let him in.
He saw the mess in the toilet and 
started to unblock the toilet...he did it in such a fast time hehe, I think because 
he also didnt liked the smell of my roses. But at least he fixed it and he ran 
away from my room, 
I closed the door, even locked it and finally could sit on 
my toilet again, I stayed there for maybe 10 minutes and then felt better 
again. After taking a shower I jumped into bed and the next day I felt much better 
again.
The next day I saw 
the Terra Cota warriors and I felt happy for them that they are just terracotta 
clay and don't have stomach problems hahahaha.
Ok dear colleagues , 
welcome back in the dragon year
Bye for 
now,
Jan
