40 Hours in Enchanting London, England

Posted on Monday, January 25, 2016

To say that London is a contrast to Munich is an understatement. Considerably warmer, it’s also considerably denser, paranoid and manic. It’s been ages since I’ve been in a city this crowded, noisy, and fast…

Jayne and I had an excellent day in Wells, England just a short drive away from Glastonbury. We enjoyed a lovely breakfast, walked around the open market and the bishop’s palace (surrounded by a moat formed by the Wells Springs which gave the city…

Friendship and Fun in Glastonbury, England

Posted on Wednesday, October 9, 2013

My week in Glastonbury was a real treat. The sights were amazing but my biggest joy came from being with Jayne, a friend I met on the Camino. I soaked up every moment of the nurturing she provided. We had many good talks and walks, went out to several pubs…

Posted on Monday, September 16, 2013

Because of the distances between sights and my lack of a car, I took a one-day bus tour of the Isle of Skye. We saw a lot, but there was so much we didn’t see. Even with a car, I could have easily spent a week on the Isle of Skye sightseeing…

Inverness to Kyleakin, Isle of Skye, Scotland

Posted on Saturday, September 14, 2013

I’m sad to say I didn’t see much of Inverness. It was cold and rainy. The hostel I stayed in, which admittedly was the cheapest available in the city, was also the grossest I’ve ever been in and felt more like a halfway…

The Braemar Gathering in Braemar, Scotland

Posted on Saturday, September 7, 2013

In the interest of taking you, my wonderful reader, along with me to Scotland, I felt that there was no better way to involve you than to take video of the spectacle of the Braemar Gathering. In retrospect, after spending…

Hello Scotland!

Posted on Friday, September 6, 2013

I have arrived in Scotland!

From Jeju Island I flew to Seoul where I spent one very luxurious night in a hotel room, my first non-hostel experience in a month. Having my own space is not something I will ever take for granted again. My typical nightly…
