10th August So Last week from Monday until Saturday I stayed in a Hostel in the centre of San Fran. The hostel was great, 2 blocks from China Town and right bang in the middle so it was easy to get everywhere! The people were really nice as well and I made some great friends, especially with the staff. On Monday, I took the open top tour bus around the city and saw all the main sights. China Town, North Beach(little Italy), the windy road, fisherman's wharf and...

Tuesday, July 29th. I have been staying in San Jose for a week after flying from Toronto. The weather, as you would expect in California, is amazing! Plus there are palm trees everywhere!

It was interesting to see a distinctly American holiday be celebrated though. Since we have been here it has been sweltering hot every day. A ...

We are in New York. The end. Have only been here since last night but its boiling and full of Americans. We are going to go and eat our body weight in food today and meet Tom and Alice! Not sure what to do today but I'm sure we will find something......we have a nice hostel room with air conditioning but the air conditioner sounds like a helicopter! And american TV is worse than hilarious. Will update you on our bohemian adventures soon! I like oreos by Hugh ...
