I’ve been pretty busy the last two days. I got my camera sensor cleaned today. I also picked out some bags I’m going to buy and replace all the bags I’m currently using. I’m getting moving all my camera gear to a smaller bag and getting a real backpack. I finally got an appointment at …
I can’t believe they have internet here. It isn’t great, but I can do simple things. So far, my PNG experience has been amazing. The Port Moresby airport is far, far from the worst airport in the world. (which I saw it was on one list). I’m on Kimbe Bay on New Britian Island. The …
I got a tattoo last week in Rarotonga. It is a Cook Island Maori tattoo. The symbols are designed to tell a story, that story being my trip. In the center row, there is one character unlike the others. That represents me. Its a solo man. The other characters are birds which represent travel. On …

It has only taken months and months, but present you Podcast Episode One. [display_podcast] My plan is to release one per week on Thursday. I’ll release the iTunes link as soon as it is available.
I’m killing a few hours as I wait for the Wellington ferry in Picton and figured I’d rent some internet time. I got a lot of help from everyone before I came to New Zealand. If anyone has suggestions for what to see/do in Fiji, I’m all ears. I’ll be arriving in Fiji on June …
It is as if I can’t escape Samoa. I’m now stuck here till Saturday because of flights to Fiji. I will have spent more time in Samoa than New Zealand. That doesn’t seem right. Travling in the Pacific is really slow. I’m going to need to pick up the pace and maybe cut down the …
