So it was time i actually got out of London for the weekend and what better oportunity than to go meet up with someone i met in London who invited me up to show me around a different part of England. So after working at the pub till 3am i managed to catch the 1450 train from Paddington which got me into Evesham at bout 5pm. Starting to get a bit on the darker side but still went for a walk along the river and around a bit of Evesham, but in the dark theres not alot to see really. We got back to the flat and had some dinner and got ready for a night out. Was actually a good night out, i enjoyed myself. The next day we went for a tiki tour to ... read more

As a continuation of my efforts to see more of the UK as well as European nations, I headed to the Cotswolds this weekend with a group of friends. Although we were all Aussies - it seemed like a much more international affair.

The rooms were all decorated in ‘cute English country’ décor - in my case including ... read more

Here is the begginning of my trip. I've been having a great time in Cork and am sad to leave but I'm excited about what I'm about to do. I met up with my Grandpa Arch, my mom, my brother Greg, and my uncle Geoff (UG). We're staying in Fort William for a couple of days and making day trips. Today we're seeing the Cotswolds and Straford-upon-Avon. We went to the little towns, they were beautiful. Almost cute looking. All the buildings are the same taupe brick color. We went to the church there and saw some reeeally old graves and an old clock that still works. There was a group of graves that told a story of a duke and his children. His older son died at about 15 and his daughter was so overcome ... read more
