About this blog
Usually I travel independantllyalone or with one other. But sometimes I take the easier way and let them do the planning and thinking. This was a four week trip with a British Adventure Travel Company called 'dragoman'. They use a back country truck equipped for camping. Mostly tenting, some budget but clean hotels. There were about 24 travelers, only one American besides myself. Do I recommend this? With reservations.
Initially the entries will be mostly just Map Pins of the Capitals. I hope eventually to fill in the details with text and photos.
