Notes from New Somewhere - Road Trip!

Rather than just hop on a plane and head home, I left New York on a bus heading to Massachusetts, crying like a baby, my snotty face pressed up against the window to catch a last glimpse of the skyline. My last few days were fantastic, right down to having a long conversation with a random wierdo in Washington Square Park for an hour on my last night, a final trip to the ever wonderful lyric diner and drunken movies with Kassie. Now, things are moving at a very different speed - yesterday, I help Jen move out of her room post graduation (lucky for some) and tomorrow we're packing up Aurelia the trusty car and heading out on our 4500 mile roadtrip - to Alaska!


For the uninitiated, this is North America. I'm currently 150 miles north east of New York in Chicopee MA, having already navigated Connecticut - ok, the bus driver did, whatever. The plan is to head west, possibly with a stop off in Chicago, working our way through a number of states including the super-exciting Montana (no one's been there yet, perhaps with good reason) eventually stopping at Seattle so I can pretend I'm in an episode of Grey's Anatomy, and then heading north to Vancouver, up through Canada and eventually reaching our destination of Anchorage, AK. It's going to take about two weeks, with a mix of camping and motels, and I think it's going to be one of these crazy intense possibly life changing experiences. Especially if we get eaten by bears. I'll do my best to post on our progress, but I've no idea when we'll have internet again, so this may be goodbye til we make the west coast, by which point I will be fractionally older - though Jen assures me 22 is a total anticlimax. In any case, see you on the other side!

Oi, achei seu blog pelo google está bem interessante gostei desse post. Gostaria de falar sobre o CresceNet. O CresceNet é um provedor de internet discada que remunera seus usuários pelo tempo conectado. Exatamente isso que você leu, estão pagando para você conectar. O provedor paga 20 centavos por hora de conexão discada com ligação local para mais de 2100 cidades do Brasil. O CresceNet tem um acelerador de conexão, que deixa sua conexão até 10 vezes mais rápida. Quem utiliza banda larga pode lucrar também, basta se cadastrar no CresceNet e quando for dormir conectar por discada, é possível pagar a ADSL só com o dinheiro da discada. Nos horários de minuto único o gasto com telefone é mínimo e a remuneração do CresceNet generosa. Se você quiser linkar o Cresce.Net(www.provedorcrescenet.com) no seu blog eu ficaria agradecido, até mais e sucesso. If is possible add the CresceNet(www.provedorcrescenet.com) in your blogroll, I thank. Good bye friend.
