Welcome, acquaintance.<\/span><\/p>\n

This is the site where I will post entries about my travels. I hope to update once a week, but will depend on availability, reliability, and pricing of internet access.<\/span><\/p>\n

So, rather than wait for an impersonal mass email from me, come visit this site whenever it suits you, and see what sort of horrible fun I am or am not having in whichever place I may or may not be.<\/span><\/p>\n

Concerning photographs, I will have a digital camera, capable of taking digital cyber photos, suitable for transmission via the “Inter-net”. Photos will be posted at <\/span>this site<\/b><\/a>. I will make every attempt to put up a few photos when I make an update here, but this is unlikely.<\/span><\/p>\n

Below\u00a0is contact information for me, and\u00a0the itinerary for my flights. Thanks for caring enough to read this far. I hope, mainly for my own sake, that whatever I write here is sufficiently interesting.<\/span><\/p>\n
