Have dreams, will travel
When I set off to Chicago after visiting my folks I expected to see the sites, try some good food and hopefully come away with an appreciation for the Windy City. Nothing more and certainly nothing less. What actually happened was far greater - I forged new friendships with people I genuinely enjoyed being with.... Continue Reading →
I ran down the stairs of one of Prague's metro stations. I was heading to a Couch Surfing meeting at a pub in a neighbourhood that was best arrived by subway. As I descended the stairs I noticed that the ticket vending offices were closed since it was evening. Hmmm...so I will need to find... Continue Reading →
As much as I like researching obscure and lesser known whereabouts (at least to me) to feature on Sundays, now and then it is good to post about famous landmarks around the world. Afterall, they are well known for a reason. Rome's Colosseum is no exception. A truly stunning building that I was able to see... Continue Reading →
HELLO! Greetings from India. I've been here a month and leave soon for Dubai. Here are some pics of my time here. I have seen Punjab, Delhi, Agra (Taj Mahal) and Goa. India has been a series of ups and downs. It truly is unlike any place I have ever visited and I have only touched the... Continue Reading →
Oh Beograd, how you surprised me. Belgrade was my "entry" point to Eastern Europe. I spent ten days there as I applied for my Indian Visa at the Indian Embassy there. In that time I encountered such great people. Not only the wonderful people I met from around the globe at my hostel (and it's... Continue Reading →

Hello! I am currently in my hostel in Skopje, Macedonia. The city is interesting. Not my favourite but it'll do. As of late they have been under construction, erecting buildings of a classic Greek style but they are brand new. And then there are the statues. I do not think I have seen so many...

Before departing Canada I imagined that I would be uploading photos and stories on a continual basis. It seems I was mistaken. It certainly is not because I have purposely neglected writing. I have had a nagging in the back of my head telling me I need to post more often. Part of my neglect is because... Continue Reading →
I do apologize for the lack of posts. I have not tired to see if World Press is still being a stickler on uploading photos. I am behind a bit in posting about adventures and musings of travel life. It seems my time has been busy planning or enjoying the Irish pub music scene. I... Continue Reading →
