    What a very inspiring Grand Gentleman! He has the zest for life! And he imparted his words of wisdom at the end of this video.

    What a very cool gent. A good concierge who actually takes pride in her or his work is an invaluable asset to a hotel. Sadly, too many simply give out generic advice and sponsored recommendations. Excellent video. 👍

    Miss you dearly, my good friend. You are looking well and healthy as always. I see I've aged and you haven't. It's so good to see your videos, and the old haunts--so to speak. Does "she" still walk the halls on the 7th floor? One of these days, I'll stop by for a big hug and a martini at the Big Four. By the way, I love all the Wes Anderson references. The very first time I saw The Grand Budapest Hotel, I said to myself, "That's Tom Wolfe. Wes Anderson just made a god-damned real movie about Tom Wolfe."
    Stay well.

    • @Lemit
      @Lemit 6 лет назад +20

      A concierge is someone who is an expert of the area and arranges local tours/reservations. I did some digging and apparently Europe had such positions before America did. So, front desk person =/= concierge, necessarily.

    • @agbook2007
      @agbook2007 6 лет назад +1

      Understood. As Lemit, apparently there is a distinction. This surprised me, too.

    A very cultured man. However, his collar and shirt don't match. This goes back to the time when collars and cuffs were separate from the shirt. It was a mark of poverty if your collar and cuffs did not match the shirt. This is really only of significance to those (very few) who care.
