welcome

Hello and welcome to my brand new blog. It's so far rather random really, as I'm somewhat computer illiterate so I'm just typing in stuff and pressing buttons and hoping it all works out for the best!

The main purpose of this weird "writing into nothing" (I feel like I'm writing to myself, sealing it in a pretty coloured capsule and sending it off into space) is that I hate hate HATE the genre of emails which is known as "group travel emails", sometimes called "travel group emails". Can't stand 'em. And now that I will be a traveller myself (could there be a more pretentious term?), I thought I'd give people the option of reading what I was up to, rather than just invading your in-boxes with stories of far-flung places, miscommunication and how I'm missing watching Doctor Who.

So, hi! I'll try and keep my posts not too long. Have a wander round. Enjoy. Leave a message.

(By the way, I have just discovered the wonderful: postsecret.blogspot.com - you should check it out. Reminds me of another favourite site of mine: www.foundmagazine.com - a magazine all too rare here in Melbourne)
