Geneva The weather and temperature here is a God-send coming from Barcelona. The cool wind is so refreshing that alot of the time I just want to sit outside, do nothing, and just enjoy being outside for the sake of being outside. I was so crushed coming from Barcelona, though; the first day in Geneva was horrible. My body ached. My brain felt as if it were being crushed. My neck and shoulders, sore. I couldn't feel my legs anymore. Taking a cold shower just startles me from my machine-like pace now. Alcohol helps, but wears off [View Full Entry]

Arrived to Barcelona on the 11th. It took me two days to upload all the photos. I don't know if I'll write anything here, maybe this one can just be a journal entry of images. If I write anything, it'll be later. Peace. M.C. [View Full Entry]

While staying in the Netherlands and keeping up with what I consider greater than the Olympics -- the World Cup -- I decided it'd be fun to see if I can catch the next game in Germany. The next match was going to be held in Dortmund on the 4th of July; better yet the teams were Germany vs. Italy, so I knew the city was going to go nuts regardles of the outcome. The ride from Hoopsdorf, Netherlands to Dortmund was fantastic, and I was surprised to find out that there is literal [View Full Entry]

Amsterdam I've come to dislike the more toursity bits of the cities i've visited even though I'm a tourist (correction: backpacker). Unfortunately, tourist attractions are all Amsterdam has to offer. That aside, Amsterdam is one hell of a city. I walked aimlessly around for hours gazing at all the shops that mkes up the maze of little side streets. Amsterdam is one of those cities who've managed to keep the feeling of archaic medievalness alive through its architecture and city layout. I had to walk quit esome distance outside the center of the ci [View Full Entry]

The graffiti seen along the sides of walls is endless when traveling by train in Belgium. I hope to God there's no project underway to get rid of all it; it colors the country too well to get rid of. Its great seeing purples, greens, pinks, and yellows in places where you'd least expect it. I saw very little graffiti in London and Paris and even less while traveling through the countryside. But Belgium has really sparked my interest in graffiti with its ridiculous prevalence throughout the country. It also helped that every bookstore I've walked in [View Full Entry]

On the 16th I left London via bus. The ride was slightly worse than god-awful. The route was from London to Folkstone; from Folkstone board a train that goes under the English Channel to end up in the French town of Calais; from Calais it was another 3 hours on bus to Paris. The Bus Was fucking wonderful. The bus was a decrepit peice of ancient automation. It felt very retro; everything in the bus was some shade of brown, and the [View Full Entry]
