Walking around Athens
Since everyone’s been asking what Athens is like and bugging me to post pictures, I finally got off my rear end and uploaded a few. You can check out the Athens photo gallery.
I labeled them in iPhoto right after I uploaded them, which means the captions didn’t make it online. Doh! The Athens photos are [...]
Adventures With Laundry
Sadly, this isn’t the kind of adventure where you go in a sewer and laundry attacks you but you kill it with your flashlight.
When I got this apartment in Athens, it came with a washing machine in it which I assumed would make it easier for laundry. Unfortunately for me, all the buttons and switches [...]
Californication
I just recently found out about Californication, which is a series on Showtime. For those unaware, David Duchovny is back and he’s playing a writer with a severe case of writer’s block. He’s stuck in a city he can’t stand (LA), he’s depressed, drinks way too much, ends up in bed with a different woman [...]

Let’s build it out of bones! I went to Kutna� Hora (not far from Prague) to see the famous church made out of bones. We also saw St. Barbara’s Church (not made out [...]
New Years in Prague
New Year’s in Prague was a blast, literally!
Prague is a very fun city with an interesting mix of old and new. It’s hard to describe it in a way to do it justice, so here are some pictures from the city:

The fireworks show in Prague is pretty much provided by the attendees. [...]
New Years in Eastern Europe
For New Years I want to try something different, so I’ve decided to go some place I’ve never been before: Eastern Europe. For selecting a location, I used a very detailed method for narrowing down the process. I went to google, searched for fun new year’s locations in the world, and Prague was at the [...]
