Victorinox

A Victorinox Swiss Army Knife is there when you need it. It is a combination of solid hand tool and inventive creativity. Its origins lie in the Soldier's Knife delivered to the Swiss Army in 1891. This led to the Swiss Officer's and Sport Knife that gained world fame as the Original Swiss Army Knife. A characteristic feature of the Victorinox Swiss Army Knife is its multi-functionality, which makes it indispensible for many of life's situations.

Travel suggestion for your client?

Here is this month's travel suggestion for your client:

Stay at a traditional japanese guesthouse (Ryokan)

Ejoy hot springs (Onsen)

Specifically in Gero

The best advice for a Personal Assistant is...

Work for one client at a time

If you do it like this you have a very high chance of succes.

Membership/concierge services/time-sharing all will fail on the long term!

Choice of car for a Personal Assistant

I had the chance to try out so many different type of cars with my clients. The car that I liked the most, the one that has been most useful was the Toyota LandCruiser.

The BMW 7 series is my next choice.



A LandCruiser is:
- safe
- luxury
- you can pack and bring a lot
- 4WD
