Christmas is coming. So home is where the heart is eh? To give the best highlights of my travels here it goes: *Greece-- MYKONOS and scuba diving on Paradise beach. Staying with a friend of mine and getting smashed off of yaga!

I couldn't get up with the fast pace of backpacking and updating this journal. I am now back in the Uk at work, and am getting around to updating it. Where to begin- I love the fact that I woke up everymorning in a new place. The feeling you get after you've conquered a city. The way the city evolves from day to night.

I could continue ... read more
