Ollie Tong - Ollie Garbas

Ollie Garbas Hey,,,

I’m Ollie Garbas or Ollie Tong to my mates and this is my Diary of my tours of duty around Europe and beyond, more for me than anything else but every one is welcome to have a nose through, (but see below *)

Im 25 years old born 25/05/81 and have always enjoyed travelling , even though im a very bad flyer have been all over England but now need something more , after being diagnosed with Chrohns disease in 2004 thought I would make the most of the times when im well and get out exploring the world starting with Europe, mainly with one of my best mates Daniel as he too is a travel mad person going all over mainly to Latvia to see his girlfriend normally via Ryan air the best and cheapest airline !!!!!!!!!!!!!

To make things more interesting ive been set the challenge of finding the best looking women in Europe (in my opinion!!!) so on all entrees there’s a rating ,,, also a rating for the Place, Nightlife and the tune that made the holiday or trip !!!!!,,

My traveling adventures are now all dedictated to my Little cousion Joe who tragically died on the 16th March 2007 aged 16, you will never be forgotten mate the world is a far worse place without you, you can now come traveling with me when ever you want.


Anyway hopefully enjoy

The country count so far is

Spain - Ibiza 4 times, Magaluff, Tenerife and Costa Del Sol
Lativa - Riga 3 times
Italy - Milan
Holland - Amsterdam
Ireland - Dublin
Sweden - Gothenburg
Germany - Friedrichshafen
Austria - Bregenz and Mount Pfander
Switzerland - St Margret
France - Paris
Turkey - Marmaras
Scotland - Inverness/Gospie
Wales - Swansea
England - all over

*Will say that (hopefully there is'nt but this Blog) is for me to keep an account, anyone is welcome to read it, but I write it as I see it and in my style of Language, if you don’t like what you read or disagree with it, get over it, as it’s my opinion !!!!!!!!!!!*
