About this blog

This is it, my Grand Adventure Number One, heading for the great unknown. I'll be running around in Russia like a love-struck teenager that's read far too many Russian 'society' novels for a month or so, before taking in the Great Wall and other Chinese delights. Finally, I'll arive in Taiwan for a year of honing my chopstick-wielding skills in between inparting my knowledge of the English language to some of the nation's little darlings.

Bring me that horizon!
