HUNGARY | Friday, 21 Mar 2008 | Views [1210]

My second trip to Spain

SPAIN | Thursday, 20 Mar 2008 | Views [1296]

It was a pleasure trip. We were lucky to leave the confines of our apartment. It was the 5 th time we’d met, and Albert and I were still blinded by our own projections – in other words, in, what is commonly known to the world, ... Read more >

Trains - vermin, new friends and SRK

INDIA | Thursday, 20 Mar 2008 | Views [1178]

Rats! I was standing on the platform, and felt, rather than saw, the ground shifting beneath me. No, I wasn't the victim of any kind of drug taking (though we'd been warned about accepting drinks from strangers). On closer inspection, the shifting ... Read more >

Couples and tent erection

AUSTRALIA | Thursday, 20 Mar 2008 | Views [1748]

Is it just us, or does putting up a tent throw all of a couple’s communication problem’s into high relief? The best thing about camping is sitting down with a drink after completing the construction phase. Then, quite comfortably, sun ... Read more >

The Beauty of the Rainforests - Springbrook

AUSTRALIA | Saturday, 15 Mar 2008 | Views [836] | Comments [1]

The heavy, dense smell. The ground and fecundity. The filtered light. Dappled greens with a splash of red berries. And the dripping water. The sound of little streams, or the heavy rush of a nearby waterfall. A Rainforest. Springbrook . We ... Read more >

A patriotic essay

SPAIN | Saturday, 15 Mar 2008 | Views [1713] | Comments [4]

Since Tiffany has begun to fill up the journal before I could even notice, I think I must hurry up and put in my grain of sand, with the angelical intention and objective to get more views, more comments, and generally smash her down on the dirt. My ... Read more >

But what are you doing about Jett's school?

UNITED ARAB EMIRATES | Thursday, 13 Mar 2008 | Views [1053] | Comments [1]
