Just got back from a hike/camp in Enchanted Rock and Jacob's Well. Did not take very many good pics but i will post what i can soon.

trip to italy is rapidly approaching. praying it'll be cool enough to debut the casual suit but i know in my heart it'll be hotter than hell.

i spent 30 days wandering around the Netherlands, Belgium, France and England mostly by myself, but also got to see some really cool care-taggers! here's some of my favorite photos that i took

my CEO of the small company I work at is kind of mandating some sort of extended vacation this summer

the thought of flying doesn't appeal, I thought maybe I'd bike to Portland (700ish miles from SF) and then take the train back. This might be a terrible idea.

I highly recommend reading ' blog about his adventures in China

Went to Prague for a few days this summer, and have never been so impressed with a city's architecture, food, and beer. Really beautiful and amazing place.

Currently in jamaica, im at a very touresty resort (which is probably a good thing) but the food is really good and i can browse care-tags while having my feet in the sand

Who's over in Portland? I'll be coming in November to race bikes and drink beer and would love to meetup with any of you people if you're around.



Unrelated: Anyone been to Russia, was doing some research today and I kind of really want to travel and visit there.

I went to Malaysia and Vietnam for a few weeks a short time ago, if any one has any questions or wants some recommendations.

I'm in Vancouver. Tell me about it, care-tags

Assuming you mean real vancouver and not suburb-of-Portland-fauxcouver, what do you want to know?

yep, real vancouver. basically I've no clue about the place because I'm here for a couple days for a conference and don't know how much to trust, like, wikitravel. where's cool for food/shops/sights/whatever? if I want to wander randomly around in no fixed direction, where should I do that?

thanks, this is awesome! walked around gastown and shopped a bit and it was cool, went out to kin kao for a meal too. glad I got to do anything interesting at all here that wasn't just sitting around listening to talks

yo what would you do in Tokyo/Japan for a week if you were going there next January? Totaylly hypothetical ofc

Berlin is completely rad. Such a chill (and bitterly chilly) city.

Veggie/vegan food paradise - completely spoiled for choice. Soooo many rad shops (both tiny and boutique) and markets. Berghain was insane, one of the best clubbing experiences of my life (in spite of a three hour queue in the freezing night with no idea whether we'd get in or not - luckily we are, as it turns out, cool as fuck).

Tagging on to 's post with some Berlin graffiti/street art pictures (a couple taken at the wall). The entire city is covered in this kind of stuff, and just strolling about is a very satisfying experience. Would love to return to explore more of it.

I'm moving to Osaka in three weeks. Life happens faster than you think. Does anyone live out there? I have two friends that live in Japan, though one of them seems to have vanished altogether.

I might start a little blog to document my time over there but I'll also be adding to my Japanese thread here, time constraints aside. So besides Facebook and blogging, Care-tags is gonna be one of the main ways I stay in contact with folks!

Going to Indianapolis this weekend for a conference but should have some free time in order to roam a little bit. Is there any must sees in Indy? Never been there. Also, any decent coffee places I should check out?

I want to go somewhere. Where should I go? (Requirements: within a cheap flight's distance of Manchester, not a small town, stuff 2 do) This is the only semester I'm not teaching in for A While which means I don't have to be here all the time so I feel like I should take advantage of this now~

Wanted to get some recs on a trip for last two weeks of December; not planning on spending the holidays at home this year. Only requirement is somewhere that will be less cold and snow than Chicago, preferably sunnier. I'm not really sure where to go because travel-wise it's the off-season for everywhere besides like, the Caribbean.

my school is making me choose flights to leave china now, even though my program ends in early june, so i'm being forced to decide now if i want to travel around east/southeast asia afterwards. is june a good time of year to go to thailand/japan/south korea/vietnam? should i boycott traveling to thailand until democracy is restored? is that a stupid question? also does not knowing any of the languages spoken in those places make it difficult to travel? i know that traveling in china without speaking chinese would be near impossible for instance.

I'm going to Miami for 5 days after Thanksgiving. Any suggestions on food/events/attractions/bars/lodging, etc.?

Also going to the Bahamas for 5 days during Christmas...any recommendations?

Where in Miami are you going? It's going to depend heavily on the area you're in.

Pollo Tropical is decent for cuban-style fast food but there's much better places if you can search. I can recommend Versailles for a little more authenticity. Lots of places have great chocolate shakes if you're into that.

down to hang out with y'all if you're around
also reccs are nice too! coffee, galleries, shops, etc etc
