Hello at last readers! I apologise for the period of radio silence caused by the fact that I've been in the desert and other internet-free areas. I have stayed in some truly challenging places over the past week the worst being Blue water national park as it was about -5 that night and we were totally unprepared! I wish I had time to tell you all the little details of each day, but I've only paid for 30 mins on this computer. I'm currently in Zion Nat...

Well readers, it's been a few days but I'm here to assure you that I'm nonetheless still very much alive. This is going to have to be fairly brief as I'm on a budget and a timescale here, but I'll do my little best. Since I last wrote an entry I've been to Washington D.C, Tennessee, Alabama and am presently in New Orleans. We got here at about 6pm last night then we hit Bourbon Street and boy did we party!!! Mum and Dad you don't need ...

Well that over, I will take a moment to make all the female readers jealous by informing you that in a marvelous and unexpected twist of fate I am now sharing my dorm room wi...

Hello again noble readers and welcome to the second instalment that I meant to write yesterday, but didn't get the chance to due to a number of fairly boring circumstances. If you are all sitting comfortably then I will begin the tale of my first full day in the big apple. I woke up quite late considering I fell asleep at about 6pm and spent the first hour of waking enjoying a good book and a decidedly soggy Macdonalds bacon ranch salad, but true to my ...

Well hello all people out there, this is my first installment sent to you live from Manhatten, 5th avenue. I managed to find, or rather stumble upon, a very cheap internet cafe while aimlessly wandering down the street so I thought I would make an update. It is pouring with rain and thanks to the aimless wandering I'm soaked right now, but i felt the need to communicate with a more familiar world! This has been a very, very long day and I feel that exhaustion...
