Arround the World in 80 days

Phileas Fogg, an eccentric English gentleman and bachelor, lives in London. He is one of the most upstanding members of the Reform Club. He comes to his club every morning on the stroke of 11.30. He reads the newspapers, eats at 12 o'clock, talks very little, plays whist with his fellow club members and goes back home at midnight. Phileas Fogg has just hired a new servant, a French man called Passepartout. Passepartout feels happy to work for the calm Mr. Fogg. After a turbulent youth he hopes to live in peace. He takes great pleasure in contemplating the schedule of his daily duties. From 8 in the morning until midnight everything is planned. 'Just what I need', he thinks, a homeloving and organized man.
