I´m here!
21.50pm…
What a day! On my flight from San Salvador I sat in the best seat ever! Was proper chuffed! Was right next to the wing, so the leg room was time and a half the other aisles. After 5 hours bent up like a row of bars in soho you can bet I was pleased! And I had the window seat, with no-one in the middle. The trays came out of the armrests and I was sat next to this guy who, it...
Airport to Lima...
It´s about 7.40am, flight leaves in 2 hours, am really reflective on just how much has gone on in the last 12 days… it´s the tip of the iceberg in this journey!!! I keep thinking as long as I can get the initial intimidatory factor of Lima airport pass, it´ll be plain sailing… then I remember that I have to catch a 16hour bus ride to Arequipa tomorrow! I know it´ll be fine, but you...
Niagara Ramblings!!!
I´ll try to keep these short and sweet, but well, we all know I love to talk!
I cannot stress enough how ridiculous the Falls are… When you first get a view you´re like Ýeah that´s not so impressive´but then you realise as you walk further towards it just how far away you are!!! There´s 2 parts to it too, one on the American side>(which, as you´ll see from the pictures is a bit of a...
photos!
Well, I realised soon enough that this site only allows single photo uploads, as I´m taking them at a ridiculous rate, I think we can all agree that is a very unnecessary ball-ache! So I will be uploading them to facebook, and adding links on here.
Oh, and PS- I was coached on computers-for-idiots before I left, and trying to implement that knowledge in Spanish is fucking tough! So bear with...

Yep. We pissed ourselves too. Check the photo!

This guy was crazy!!!
He had no forearms, no legs from the knee down, had grown his beard like bluebeard the pirates and had a fag dangling from his mouth which he was smoking without touching.
How was he making money? sitting on the sidewalk with a casio keyboard in front of him bashing the keys with his elbow stumps!(which, by the way, he couldn’t keep close to his side, so they would raise in the air every...

This is my journey so far….. I’d quite like to have one of those Indiana Jones style interactive plane maps, so if anyone can help me out I’d be so very happy!!!!
It's finally begun!!!!
Well! I’m in Canada now, having an ace time(not least thanks to Tara and Dufty being amazing as always) They’re living in a really nice one bed condo(that’s a flat to us Uk folk) and they have a cat, which was called ‘Coup De Tat’ when I arrived, but on consideration has been renamed Doris(much better!).
I’ve been up the CN Tower so far, which has a super...
