Ever thought of
visiting, escaping to,
or even living in the
Grand Duchy of
Luxembourg? This is your
all-inclusive, readable,
hands-on and
entertaining guide to
Luxembourg by an
Englishman who exchanged
the dingy commuters’
life of London for the
exciting and
cosmopolitan world of
Luxembourg.
Book Description
An Expat’s Life,
Luxembourg & The White Rose
is a refreshing and
forthright take on the
Englishman Abroad genre.
Reading David Robinson’s
relaxed prose is like
sitting down for a drink or
two with the author in the
pub of the title. Indeed, as
the tome progresses, so the
reader warms to Robinson’s
down-to-earth character.
The author’s very personal
view of an expat’s life in
Luxembourg is not
overbearing, and even the
most informed reader will
learn something new about
the history of the Grand
Duchy, its bureaucracy and
social conventions and
attitudes. The book is
brimful with little snippets
of useful information and
trivia for those unfamiliar
with the country, and
Robinson’s anecdotes will
spark empathy with readers
who live, or have lived, in
Luxembourg. —Duncan Roberts,
editor of 352 Magazine.
