It’s Too Darn Hot
Posted on December 14, 2011 | No CommentsIt’s 11:30pm and still 40 degrees C. For you “daft” Americans (nice word choice, Sileas), that converts into about 104 degrees Farenheit. Solid. I’ve always looked good with a little bit of a sweaty sheen. Thursday was a bank holiday so I went out Wednesday... -

Jet Lag
Posted on July 16, 2011 | 2 CommentsWell friends, I made it. I’m in Sevilla. I started my journey yesterday and I feel like I traveled around the world even though I only made it through one hemisphere–Omaha-Newark-Brussels-Sevilla.
