Sioux Falls to Niagara Falls - Seon

September 3, 2010 - Boston, Massachusetts, United States
  Hello Family and Friends! After 38 days and nearly 6,000 miles later, Loz and I have reached the East coast! We left you on our way East again towards Sioux Falls (22nd Aug).  After Keystone we visited Bear Country USA which is an open, drive through wildlife park.  It was pretty amazing as we were technically the ones in cages (cars) and the animals roam free! After missing out on seeing bears in Yellowstone we finally got to see about 30 plus black and brown bears sitting on the side...

Exploring Guatemala - and a cheeky side

September 3, 2010 - Antigua, Guatemala
 Friday, 27th August - Lake Atitlan The tour of the lake takes in 3 small towns, San Pedro, Santiago and San Antonia. The boat is a bit late in leaving, but it's no big deal. The passengers are mostly Spanish speaking tourists, I speak with two girls from Uruguay, who are having a few days in Panajachel before starting a course in Antigua about the affects of global warming. There is another lad from UK, he is just starting a one year round the world tour. He laughs when I tell him I am just...

Farewell NY

September 25, 2010 - New York, New York, United States
Despite feeling home in New York I am certainly European and quite German at heart. After 5 years of hard work and many unforgettable experiences my job parted ways with me and I parted ways with the city. Sorting through belongings that have gathered throught many years it was hard but necessary to sell most of them... First friends, then co-workers and in the end a seemingly never ending stream of craigslist buyers roamed through my house and home and beloved belongings. Exhausting and...

RIGA # 3

August 17, 2010 - Riga, Latvia
Seeing as how this was our last time in Riga, Kaitlyn, Carly, Kelsey and I decided to set out and wander around the city a bit. Carly and Kelsey were in the mood for some sushi. Kaitlyn had a bunch of Riga currency, which she referred to as ‘monopoly money’, “burning a hole through her pocket”, so she wanted to shop. And me? Well all I wanted to do was make sure we ventured out of old town and into the more modern part of Riga, a beautiful part of town, which a remembered passing by...

Pizza met Filippenko

September 2, 2010 - Berkeley, California, United States
Zoals voorspeld zou de frequentie van onze blog een stuk lager worden zodra we allebei echt waren begonnen. Ten eerste omdat we minder nieuwe dingen meemaken, maar vooral omdat we het opeens een stuk drukker hebben. Zoveel dingen zijn nieuw en daar besteed je vaak meer tijd aan. Maar goed, we komen steeds meer in een ritme. Ik heb eindelijk de sleutels ontvangen van de kamer die ik deel met drie andere graduate studenten. Er is een Mac mini geinstalleerd en ik ben de helft van de tijd aan het...

How the other half live...

September 2, 2010 - Chicago, Illinois, United States
 Arriving into Chicago we had no idea our 6 week Europe trip would be starting out in true rockstar fashion. United had overbooked our flight to London and we were on the waiting list. Under other circumstances this would be annoying but realising that we had no plans set in stone, we took it as a perfect opportunity to take advantage of a few 'perks'! Not only were they offering free accommodation at the Hilton for the night, free meals, and $800 travel vouchers per person...but they were...

I'M OK :-)

September 2, 2010 - Kathmandu, Nepal
Despite my tearful exit from the country (sorry for wetting your shoulders Cathy & Dave), I am pleased to report that I am OK!!!  My flights to Delhi and Kathmandhu have been great (Steve's book really has helped a lot) and Kathmandhu is a complete assault on the senses...you'd either love it or hate it..and I LOVE IT!!!  There are people, cows, dogs and such a variety of traffic everywhere... horns and whistles going all the time and a real hustle and bustle.  There are smells on every...

Eating, Shopping and the end of the Baltic!!

September 2, 2010 - Saint Petersburg, Russia
September 2 So I'm nearing the end of my Baltic summer, which is very exciting because that means the Mediterranean is around the corner!  We are so close to the end of our contract and it's bittersweet.  I've gotten so used to living on a ship now and my routine here, but can't wait to be back home with family, friends, and communication!  It's pretty much been the same around here, just cruises back and forth from Copenhagen and Stockholm.  We're down to 45 days left, which is just...

Week 1 - South Africa & Malawi

September 2, 2010
Last week Tuesday, the 24th of August 2010, we arrived at Park Station in Johannesburg at 9am to catch our bus to Blantyre, leaving at 10am. We had prepared ourselves mentally for the journey, a 31 hour bus trip which was scheduled to arrive in Blantyre in Malawi at 5pm on Wednesday afternoon. We eventually only left Park Station at about 12:30, and our very first encounter of the famous "African Time" was experienced right at home.The bus was packed full of Malawian migrant workers heading...

Darwin

August 20, 2010 - Darwin, Australia
Wow, really getting behind with these journal entries! Matt and I reluctantly left Sydney to head to Darwin, a 3 hour flight took us there and we landed into a very different climate to the one we had left! The heat was sweltering so we dived into an air conditioned bus and made it for the first hostel we came across in the town.A brief walk around the CBD seemed to indicate that there really wasnt much to Darwin and we ummed and aahed about whether to move our flight and head to Bali a few...

25 jours en Inde...le come-back

February 1, 2010 - Udupi, India
Rien ne sert de prevoir, quand on vient en Inde... On avait beau savoir ce qui nous attendait, ca ne nous a pas empeche d'eprouver un gros choc culturel pendant 3 ou 4 jours apres notre aterrissage...Je suis dans un cyber-cafe minuscule, a Udupi, dans l'etat de Karnataka. Il y a la clim' mais j'ai quand meme les aisselles qui collent. Je ne dois pas etre la seule, a en juger par l'odeur environante. Mais moi, au moins, je me suis mis du deodorant ce matin. C'est loin d'etre le cas de...

MOSCOW

August 14, 2010 - Moscow, Russia
On August 13th we arrived in Russia for yet another one of our weekly three day stints, and I was all ready to create the “St. Petersburg # 7” file when I got some really great and surprising news – on the second of our three days, I would be escorting the day tour to Moscow! Now, not only was I surprised because this was a very special tour, one in which mainly only Officers (or “Stripes” as I call them) get to attend, but also because I didn’t find out that I was even going...

Anyone that is struggling to decide what to buy the special lady in their life could find that the recently launched Ghd Hair Straighteners Precious gift set is the ideal solution.Ghd Straighteners are the perfect hair tool for many women all around the UK, and a rising number of women are ditching their cheaper, lower quality straightening irons in favour of these irons, which have become a household name. However, Hair Straighteners do not come cheap so some women may struggle to stretch to...

For Jim, Sue, Chris, Karen and others overseas

September 2, 2010 - Mandurah, Australia
For the sake of those that are not located in Mandurah and hence unable to enjoy our continual recollections (eg: "We've been there!" when watching TV) and 90 gigabytes of photos and videos which we're dreading having to organise and edit, I'll be reloading and finishing loading photos on this blog over the coming days. Now that we have working internet, time and energy with which to publish things the photos should not only end up in the correct folders but even get their own informative...

The Last Day / Why I No Longer Support Chelsea FC

September 1, 2010 - Perth, Australia
And to think that we thought we'd seen the last of our Public Transport Curse! How misguided we were. For those that wonder why they never knew of my affection for Chelsea FC, don't let your newfound ignorance get you down. In truth I only decided to support them this morning when I saw the nice blue colour of their uniforms. Unfortunately the infatuation was shortlived, but you can read the postscript (read: rant) at the end of this entry to find out why. The important lessons to be learned...

Entering the Mosque

May 20, 2009 - London, United Kingdom
  Hey Everyone, After my first year of college, I applied for funding through my school to attend a mission’s trip in London, England. I received funding to go to London to minister to the Muslim population there. I went on the mission’s trip with a Boston church I had been attending at the time. The five of us participated in London City Missions where we worked at a Café, Forever Café, with another group through a different organization in the Isle of Dogs, which is a part of London...

Frustrations

September 1, 2010 - Remer, Minnesota, United States
   Yesterday was a good day...started off with some music with my two team members...it's kind of coming together.  I'm excited to get all set up on mics and amps and stuff pretty soon.  I had a rough night last night too though...I got frustrated by a lot of things...mostly by a lot of things back home that are unresolved.  The speaker at our campfire spoke something to the group, but honestly, I felt like he was talking straight to me.  After he spoke, I got really mad.  I had a hard...

Prayer Partners

August 30, 2010 - Remer, Minnesota, United States
 So it's really funny that I was talking about my team's dynamics and what it would be like when saul gets here and how we will fit him into our team.  The reason it's funny is because just two days ago, Marcela, a woman from Columbia just arrived.  Today we had the opportunity to get matched up with our Prayer Partners throughout the Youth encounter teams.  Each person who is on a team will get matched with another Teamer to build relationships outside of just people who are on your...

First Day of Camp

August 29, 2010
 8/29/2010  First day at camp today...it's absolutely beautiful here.  The first thing I did was bust out my camera and take pictures of the lake and all of the beautiful scenery that's everwhere.  I'm going to fully enjoy these next two weeks a lot.  It's a really nice change up from just being at the church all day and being inside.  Physically I feel so much better and awake and everything just because I'm gettin all that vitamin D! :)  Right now we just have a little bit of quiet...

Škola?

September 1, 2010 - Reykjavík, Iceland
Tak za sebou máme první dny ve škole, zařizovací dny. Byla to fuška, nenávidim to. Pořád někde něco hledat, o něco žádat, pak na to čekat, pak zjistit, že je to jen první krok z deseti. Navíc naše angličtina, úrovně "pochytit jen polovinu", nám to zrovna neusnadňuje. Předměty, který máme zatím zapsaný jsou tedy: Icelandic Culture (v jeho rámci budou různý výlety, sledování islandských filmů, galerie, muzea atd.), Vocabulary (Islandština = science...

El rojo centro de Australia. Safari

August 25, 2010 - Alice Springs, Australia
 Llegamos a Alice Springs, la unica ciudad que existe en el enorme centro de Australia. Bueno, lo de ciudad es un decir, por que se trata mas de una comuidad de vecinos, unos 24,000 habitantes. Se trata de una ciudad situada en medio de montañas, o montes, por que tampoco es que sean muy altas, donde hay casi mas centros comerciales por metro cuadrado que habitantes. Alice Springs, es, sin duda curiosa. Lo primero que llama la atencion es la cantidad de aborigenes que hay en ella. La razon...
