    I went to Morocco with Sofia last week. We rented a car and drove everywhere but the extreme south. It was a lot of fun. We saw a lot of cool stuff. We did a lot of cool stuff. We got engaged in a 2000 year old whore house because I’m sentimental. Here’s the photographic…

    We went to Stonehenge last weekend. As is standard, I needed a break from the break due to how busy it was. We had quite a bit of fun and saw a great deal of stuff. We spent time in Bath and Salisbury (of the steak fame) and checked out some of the oldest blocks…

    Stu and Pulkit let me stay at their place for a couple of weeks over the winter break. I got to hang out with Kaya and Buddy, which was nice. It was also good to see Stu and Pulkit. We rented a car over the Winter Holiday and fucked around the area. Went to some…

    We, that is Darren, Rick and I, went to London and tooled around for a bit. It was a lot of fun. London is pretty and busy and vital in a way that no American city is (even you, New York). Shit, the small town I live in has 10,000 fewer people than Cedar Rapids,…

    The first time I went to India, the friend of the family I was supposed to stay with died just before I arrived. I didn’t want to intrude on their grieving, so I took my shit to the train station nearest Mumbai International Airport and bought a ticket to a place that people went to…

    While I’ve been to the UK before, I’ve not ‘lived’ there in the resident sense. Tooling around in a country’s biggest city for a couple of weeks is different from living there. Now I’m living here. It’s a real trip, man. Damon Albarn and Graham Coxon are both from the area; exciting, right? First impressions:…

    A bunch of massive changes happening; Tri and I went to DC to sort out Tri’s school visa (it was significantly easier than we thought it was going to be). Mrs. Chau came and went, Nhi came and went back to college, Tri went off to college and I’m getting ready to leave. We had…
