Travel Note: Head Space

Posted in Uncategorized on 16-December-2009 | 3 Comments »

The News Of My Demise Has Been Greatly Exaggerated.
Especially so since there has not been any news of such kind.  Rather, I have not been posting much since leaving Athens.  To be frank, have been (still am) in a bit of a weird head space and not really feeling all that up to sharing much [...]

Travel Note: Athens

Posted in Uncategorized, tagged , , , , , , on 5-December-2009 | Leave a Comment »

Getting to Athens has been an interesting experience, but I made it safe and sound although a bit wet as the weather has turned a bit.  While Athens may be a big destination for a normal tourist I am really here for one just reason: to cover the demonstrations (riots) to commemorate the one year [...]

I’m in Ljubljana now and I am totally enchanted by this city. I don’t think I could give a higher recommendation to another European city, of which I have traveled to many.

I’m gonna try with a little help from my friends
