I’ve been away…

4th
Mar. × ’10

I’ve been away on a cruise for 10 days, on the Queen Mary 2, and only had internet connection enough for emails. I’ve been busy though, and have loads of photos and videos and stories to share, but they’ll have to wait until I get back to Berlin. Something I’m not looking forward to, by [...]

A bad flight (and a new laptop on the way?)

The story of part one of my flight home:
I waited by the cruise for my taxi, which didn’t seem to be booked by anyone, and once it was finally sorted I set off with about 45 minutes to go before my flight. Thankfully the airport in Ushuaia is pretty close to the town, because everything [...]

I finally got round to sorting through the 900 photos from the trip so far. Here are two from the Falklands:

I’m just getting ready to leave the ship to go to the airport to fly home. In fact, I was ready hours ago, but for bullshit bureaucracy reasons I wasn’t allowed off the ship, and had to spend all day aboard. After about 24 hours of travel I’ll be home for the first time in [...]

Taking stock of 2009

Jan. × ’10

After working hard at my chosen career for the past six years I’ve reached the point where I have a surplus of time and money, so have to use both to achieve all the things I can while both at home and while traveling.
And so, after making a list of all I’ve accomplished in 2009, [...]

What Mount Osorno looked like back in March:

Yesterday I took a walk around Punta Arena, the southernmost city in Chile. Man, that is one ugly place to visit! I took a few photos, but it’s hard to find an interesting shot. I may talk more about it in the [...]

Sunglasses (and getting into a fight)

26th
Dec. × ’09

Yesterday I picked up my sunglasses, and one of the lenses fell off. YES!
Why I am I happy with this? Well, I have a bad track record with sunglasses. I either lose or break them. And I do this often, normally within a week or two of buying a pair. These sunglasses I bought back [...]

Dec. × ’09

After flying in from Miami, and getting to my hotel, I stayed in most of the day because of rain. Come 3:30pm the rain was clearing, I thought I’d head out on a walk, see if I could meet up with some jugglers at Plaza Francia. There was nobody there, so I continued on taking [...]

Aruba update and photos

1st
Dec. × ’09

Today I left the Prinsendam in Aruba. Normally at the end of a contract I go direct to the airport and fly home. But tomorrow I’m joining another ship here in Aruba, so have to stay overnight.

Normally when I stay overnight for work I stay in a pretty average hotel. Not to shabby, but nothing [...]
