Post-Volunteer Adventures: August 2006
http://postvolunteeradventures.blogspot.com/2006_08_01_archive.html
Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body, but. rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming. WOW! Wednesday, August 02, 2006. For anyone that might be interested, I will be holding another multi-media slideshow presentation from this trip. It is presently in the making and hopefully will be done in the near future. I will post further details closer to the date of completion. But yeah, aside f...

From Sea to Sea ...: July 2010
http://viathesevenseas.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Tuesday, July 6, 2010. Re-evaluation of the Polish train system. Posted by Kasia Koltunska. From Augustow the plan was to catch a night train to Malbork, spend a few hours there and then continue by another 6.5 hour train to Szczecin. This journey has proved to be a little nightmare of its own. Posted by Kasia Koltunska. The catch was that aside for the sleeping bag and the rented tent, I had no other camping gear. This meant that the nights were spent on the very hard and often quite cold floor and ...

Traversing the intercontinental Isthmus:: Tikal: An Ancient Maya City
http://centralamerica2011.blogspot.com/2011/03/tikal-ancient-maya-city.html
Wednesday, March 30, 2011. Tikal: An Ancient Maya City. Located deep in the Guatemalan rainforest and spread over nearly 500 square kilometers, Tikal is an impressive sight to see. It used to be one of the main Maya city states, with a population of over 100,000. Today, only a small portion has been excavated with the majority of the complex still consisting of green, tree-covered mounds. However, Maya construction stops a long way short of what the Cambodian did in Angkor Wat. The Grand Plaza was no exc...

WOW! Monday, July 24, 2006. 9 Journey Through Africa: Some of the Last Thoughts. Our small group of six has now continued its journey into Botswana. At first we were a bit nervous about the border crossing due to the fact that the border officials are known to confiscate any wood products that they find.

Tuesday, July 6, 2010. Vilinus and Lithuania: my last country and most northerly stop ever. Vilinus and Lithuania: my last country and most northerly stop ever. Posted by Kasia Koltunska. Round midnight we started heading home and although the sky had darkened and the buildings were all beautifully lit up, the horizon remained pale, the darkness not quite complete. Everyone has the right to die, but this is not an obligation. Everyone has the right to be undistinguished and unknown. On April 1st, the bri...

Traversing the intercontinental Isthmus:: Bikinis with Legs: Yet Another Random Theft
http://centralamerica2011.blogspot.com/2011/03/bikinis-with-legs-yet-another-random.html
Sunday, March 27, 2011. Bikinis with Legs: Yet Another Random Theft. I guess generally when you think of bikinis you also think of legs – nice long straight legs protruding from them. Yet that is not what I’m referring to here. Instead I think that the bikini bottoms grew legs and walked away while illuminating their path with my favorite headlamp. Our transfer included a night’s stay at Posada el Zapote and that’s where we were brought to. Only two were occupied so we got to pick from the other 8. Well,...
