After Fiji came my return the United States of America by going through Hawaii to see Lewis (my brother/former roomy/a best friend/the man) get married to the gorgeous and wonderful Annamarie. I was so blessed to be in attendance to their wedding and especially being one of his men by his side to bring him to his wedding day. (more…)
Sitting here at Bamboo Travellers eating breakfast thinking about the time I’ve had in Fiji and it’s hard to put it into words.
I’ve loved it here and would definitely come back again. Let me give you a run down. (more…)
It’s 9am and I’m sitting at a park table next to the van that I’ve been riding in the last 12 days and I’ve realized that I haven’t been able to post anything until now. Internet in New Zealand isn’t just hard to come by, but it is expensive, so sorry VicLiv, you’ve had to fall victim to the price. Oh well, I’m writing now, you should be happy, let’s move on. (more…)
I took off from Cairns at 12pm yesterday. After two flights, I finally made it to New Zealand around 12am (no, it wasn’t 12 hours of flying). I didn’t book a place to stay as I decided to save some bucks and sleep at the airport. (more…)
I’m aboard a ship. The ship is called The Kangaroo Explorer. I arrived on this ship by booking a three day and two night live-aboard diving trip through Cairns Dive Centre. We set off out of Cairns on the 5th of January towards the Great Barrier Reef and by the time I post this, I’ll have completed 10 new dives. (more…)
Soooooooooooooooooooooooo…good news. For Christmas, I finally got my computer charged again, so I can actually make posts with a keyboard rather than using my phone, camera, uhhhh…mobile device. My parents sent over a new charger that Microsoft sent to their house. It cost a lot, but I also got my watch replaced (it wasn’t elephant wrestling proof so it went down the Mekong river) so that was also in the box.
Now that I have my computer again and can make real posts, guess I don’t have an excuse not to update this site once again. Sorry for taking so long! (more…)
I left Hue on the back of a motorbike down to Hoi An. The ride was awesome. Stopped at a number of spots on the way that I never knew about, saw a lot of torn down trees in Danang, and got a couple new suits and had a good time with friends along the way in Hoi An. (more…)
I arrived in Hue by plane the afternoon of the 14th after a great time hanging out in Hanoi. A typhoon as coming into Hue the morning of the 15th, but I ended up having an amazing time and meeting some great people. (more…)
I arrived in Hanoi a few days ago and since then I’ve seen an amazing local violinist playing in a bar, went to Ha Long Bay, and met some awesome people. I’ve spent a few nights in Hanoi, one night on a boat, and one night on an island and now it’s off to Hue, Vietnam. (more…)
I arrived in Beijing late on the night of the 5th, and had quite the adventure here meeting some amazing people, and seeing some amazing places I wasn’t planning to see. I’m glad Dan and Matt convinced me to get to Beijing. It was an excellent city with a lot going on.
I had three full days here in Beijing and feel that I filled my time pretty well. I saw four or so really awesome attractions (more…)
The last few days I’ve been with my friend Matt, his two daughters, and my new friend Dan exploring the town of DaLi. (more…)
