Travels Upon This World

• . travels . :: Ongoing - an attempt at a current "blog" of sorts as I flail about in Europe for the forseeable future. With no itinerary, your guess is as good as mine. But for humors sake, the list of destinations may resemble the following: Italy, Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegowina, Montenegro, Albania, Greece, Turkey, Egypt, Bulgaria, Romania, Serbia, Hungary, Austria, Slovakia, Czech Republic, Poland, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, Finland, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, and Germany as my exit. Why not?

• Southern Africa :: June 2005 - a month long romp through the seedy underbelly of Africa. Namely, from Joburg through Swaziland, Lesotho, and on to Cape Town. North to Namibia and Etosha, followed by a mad dash through the Kalahari in Botswana back to Pretoria. What better place to learn how to drive manual? And with elephants and kudus as obstacles, at night, no less.

• New Zealand :: August 2004 - from Auckland through Wellington to Christchurch and back, an invigorating tale of adventure in the land home to both hobbits and raindeer. With anecdotal fables and whimsical tales (vis, none of the above), the perfect reading companion for all your questions surrounding the land of the elusive Kiwi. Illustrated. 1680x1050 minimum viewing recommended.
