well, err, that’s me!

You might not know it yet if you depend completely on this blog to keep up with my whereabouts, because I abandoned the blog a couple of months ago:
I have been home from my big journey since November.
I have been away for slightly more than a year. I spent about 8 months in India, and during the rest of the time I traveled in different parts of Asia
(in chronological order): Nepal, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Pakistan, Iran, Armenia, Georgia, Turkey
You can see the full route on my travel map.

The trip was a fantastic experience with uncountable memories I am fond of. I will write down here on the blog various bits and anecdotes from the journey. And of course you will find loads of pictures in the gallery.

Now you might wonder if I made a typo in the title and it should correctly read “home again”. But no, I really mean it, in a couple of hours I will board a flight to Egypt in company with my brother. For the first week we booked a diving package in El-Quseir. After that, my brother will return home. My flight is on the 8th of January from Cairo, that leaves me with 10 days for traveling.

This time it will be kind of a new experience, because it is the first time I go traveling practically unprepared, quite unlike the last trip where I even took Hindi lessons for a year before starting. Now all preparation I did was ordering the lonely planet guide and a phrase book on amazon. So I have one weeks time during the stay in the diving resort to plan the rest of my trip.

Well then, I have to get a couple of hours sleep, have to catch the first train to the airport in the morning. Wish you happy Christmas and cya next year!
