AUSTRALIA | Tuesday, 4 Dec 2007 | Views [782] | Comments [2]

The last few days in Melbourne have been a wonderful waste of planning time. Everyday we say we are getting up early or have this planned, and it comes to more or less nothing. What HAS been achieved in the last few days is quite a considerable amount ... Read more >

Addicted?

AUSTRALIA | Saturday, 24 Nov 2007 | Views [383] | Comments [1]

Traveling, i have discovered, has come down to the places i see, and the people i meet while doing so. Staying in hostels your likely to meet a new person every day, and while your talking the same questions get thrown up over and over. One thats been ... Read more >

AUSTRALIA | Wednesday, 21 Nov 2007 | Views [570] | Comments [2]

Two weeks in Canberra was both a useful and interesting introduction to Australia. Weather wise other than two storms during the night it has been cloudless skies, cool mornings and then hot all the rest of the time. My 1st few days in a long time ... Read more >

Wasting away

JAPAN | Sunday, 11 Nov 2007 | Views [593] | Comments [2]

Coming to the end of the Japan leg of the trip was interesting. A three night period where only 1 of the nights would be spent in an actual bed, and the rest would be spent on transportation. It didn't encourage me in the slightest when Raul informed ... Read more >

Kyoto is temple town, there are over 3,000 temples and shrines and having come from seeing some in Tokyo i wasn't enjoying the prospect of being "templed out" very soon but! Kyoto has some very different ones, golden ones, silver ones, an ... Read more >
