“If I only scrape a living, at least its a living worth scraping. If there’s no future in it, at least the present’s worth remembering.” Darkside Of The Lens from mickey smith on Vimeo. Found on Gear Patrol.

I’m still two years behind on my travel blogging. Sorry about that. Here in real-time though, I’m still bouncing around as much as possible. I guess 2011 can be summed up as The Great American Cities trip. Nowhere super exotic this year, but I got to spend a couple days in some awesome cities I’ve never been to.

Nothing like the holidays to bring out the materialistic side of me (who am I kidding, people that know me see this side more than they see the sun). Seeing that I’ll be desperately squirreling away money for the next few months, come check out my Svpply account to see all the things I’m drooling over but can’t afford.

One minute they were sleeping by the campfire with us. The next minute the drunk German girls had rolled up their swags and gone back to the cabin. Sounds were apparently heard while Adriane was getting bit by possums and I was snoring comfortably under the stars. I made pancakes for the ladies when we [...]

Up to this point, I had tasted more of Australian’s wildlife than seen them in the wild. Thankfully, two days in Kangaroo Island made up for that.

Hell, I would’ve booked my own flights (18 over 44 days). I [...]

Our last day together and one more all-day hike to experience. I awoke from my swag to another cackling dying fire. I was getting quite used to this outdoor sleeping thing. We were transported hours away from Uluru to King’s Canyon. There’s not much to say about this hike that hasn’t been said before, it [...]

It has definitely come to that point long after this vacation that my memory of Australia is starting to fade from time. It’s now June 2011, I went on this trip in November 2009. Nonetheless, I trudge on due to the commitment to myself, and hope that some fading memories help to improve brevity in [...]

Don’t be mad. Once again, I have another new theme to play with, and a bunch of broken images/plugins to resolve. Not to fret, tons of blog posts on Australia ready to go once I clean up the mess.

Turning this into more of a Tumblr until the full length stuff comes back.
