Heyy! I'm cheating a little bit, I'm not actually in Manhattan, I'm now on a bus in the way to Canada, but still in the state! Navigating through the subways of Gotham city with that big bag on my back was harder than trekking a mike in the desert with it on my back. I was so scared I was going to fall over backwards as people kept pushing me. It was so cool being back in Times Square, I could just stand in the middle of that place for hours, it's crazy! The t...

Helllooooo! Philadelphia was not what i expected at all. I think that's because the only knowledge I have of the city is the Fresh prince shooting some b-ball. of course, I forgot that National Treasure was filmed for some part here. I only have a day, so I crammed as much as I could (for free into it).

Hey! Trying to think of where I left off... I think it was in Memphis and I was heading on to the city tour. It was good for a quick drive by stop of all the locations, but we didn't get to stop properly at a lot of places. We got to see the ducks going in for the night. One duck refused, it was hilarious.

Hey everyone! Dad, didn't you hear that song 'elvis isn't dead, because I heard him on the radio'? It's true! I'm ignorig the education comments because you know I went to better schools:) Igot to Memphis pretty late, but my hostel is right next door to the greyhound. I got into the dorm about 10pm and my 3 room mates not long after. Itsa pretty cool dorm - an English couple and a Swedish guy - and we sat up chatting until really late, which wasn't great for the ...

Yo dudes! People on my travels did not recommend Nashville, but I've had a fantastic time here. When I was in Austin, I met a lady on my kayaking tour from Nashville and she gave me her email address to get in touch when I'm in town. I arrived here Friday evening and her and her daughter took me for dinner. It was so sweet! They took me to a lovely restaurant and wouldn't let me pay for a thing. Her daughter Kate is a couple of years older than me and is a grad ...
