About this blog

Warning - This is my 1st attempt at a Travelogue and in places it stinks. It aims to detail my 1st extended travel experience, and the reason I haven't yet stopped. Couldn't be bothered looking around? Fine, I don't blame you.... as I said it's crap. But at least check out the last entry where I attempt to do something that was almost as hard as coming home - summarise the trip (I also commented on why nobody will care either way - see link below). Enjoy... if that's the right choice of word.
