There is nothing more I would like to say than ‘life is boring and there isn’t much going on at all’, but as you have probably guessed from my lengthy silence, this has NOT , been the case!
In between work, holidays, work, football, work, concerts, work, babies (not mine), work, more holidays and even more work, work, work life has been craaaaazzzzzyyy!
I can’t complain though, I am doing heaps of travelling and am currently working on a project out in India. I know it sound all glitzy, but all this travelling can tire a girl out…. I think I am ready for another holiday, lol ;o)
So in summary things are going quite well, my family is still on the ever increasingly futile quest to find me a suitor :o/ ??? Work is going well, but super busy so I’m puttin’ load’s of extra hours in, that’s not to say that I haven’t had the chance to let my hair down.
One of the highlights has to be my final week in London before I left for India…
Hanging with Kasey, Brett & Eddies birthday bash, My sisters random birthday lunch and Toby’s with Mike.
Oh and not to mention an awesome week in the Dominican Republic with Nev.
Lowlights were definitely the Rabies shots for India… yeah, yeah, I’ve already heard all the jokes so enough of that ;o)
I must take the opportunity to apologise to all of those whom I have neglected over the past couple of months….
Foster folks, Emma, Craig & Chloe-Leigh as well as my mates, I’ll use work as my main excuse, but there are soooo many more. I’d like to think that things will calm down over the up and coming months, but it look’s like I will be transferred out to Singapore for work for a while… probably about a year, so watch this space, and if you ever find yourself out in that neck of the woods, be sure to look me up. Singapore centre is only about a 20min drive from the airport, so no excuses!
Ok so I hope you are all safe and well, sorry again for not having been in touch for a while, will try not to be sooo much of a slacker in the future.
From Delhi…

Same old, same old
So what have I been up to… Globetrotting as much as possible to be honest… Let me see, the last time I wrote I’d just come back form Amsterdam after which I left for Germany with Ben to take in the sights, sounds and smells of Colognes world famous Christmas Markets. I couldn’t believe that such a small city could be home to such a big attraction. It was great... Didn’t actually buy anything… except lots of mulled wine … whoops ;o)
Christmas was a peaceful affair, hanging out with the usual crowd in Walton (shout out to Huck) and dinner with the Kennedy’s (Thanx Mike), and New Years was as crazy as ever.
I saw in the New Year with a trip away to Malta and then Iceland, weather wise, from one extreme to another. Both trips were great, but a word of warning to anyone planning to go to Iceland… Damn it’s expensive.. TRUST ME, when I say this… We’re talking almost 8 GBP for a beer, but it’s definitely worth it for a few days, it’s beautiful… As always I’ll get some photos when I have a bit more time on my hands.
Work is going well, but I never seem to have enough going on to stop me from thinking about traveling again.
There is the possibility that I am going to be sent out to India for a few months for work so that my keep the animal at bay for a while, but I guess we will have to wait and see.
Apart from that and throwing random coconuts into the Thames (trust me you don’t want to know), I haven’t really been up to much worth writing about… Life in London is pretty bog standard… I love this City and the people in it, but in terms of writing something interesting all I can say is bars, drinks, food, clubs. Etc, etc, etc…. ;o)
What have you guys been up?
Till the next installment…

The End of the... End...???
I swear that I had half written a blogg at some point in October then forgotten about it, and now I can’t find it anywhere on my laptop hardrive…
Oh well here go’s again… I know, I know, I have been super lame again… and trust me this time is NOT ‘cos I have nothing to write about… This time is because I have been soooo busy that I haven’t had time to stop and think!
I can’t believe that the last time I wrote was in September, that’s pretty bad, even by my standards…
Where do I beginning….
Ummmm…
Well….
The past few months have been jammed packed with all the classic attributes that regularly feature in my life… there’s been some comedy, some tragedy, some drama, and even some action all mixed in with a dash of horror… lol
The highlights:
• Went to an awesome gig with Ben to see ‘John Butler Trio’… check them out they are pretty sweet band from Oz
• Reunion with the old Superbowl gang inc Natalie, Shana and Ryan whom I haven’t seen for like 5 years! Turned out be a double whammy as Natalie is hitched to a guy who is friends with some of my college buddies that I had lost touch with!
• Been to the West End a couple of times
• Joined the work Football team… ‘yes’ me, playing football!
• Spent a month in Singapore for work… and a little play!
Met the most fantastic people… shout out the entire Singapore gang, Jeanie, Nev, Philphee, Si, The Chitty Chitty Bang Bang Crew, Dirty Uncle James and Shazza to name but a few!
• Mike’s Graduation
• Innovation-In-The-Dam – DnB Raving hard for 4 days!!!
• Cardiff (with Dave and Tom)
• Laura’s Art exhibition
• Not to mention the mission to find me a suitor!
To elaborate, it’s been a f’ing busy few months …
The dominating features having to be
My trip to Singapore which was to say the very, very least ‘Messy’, actually come to think of it, so was my trip to Amsterdam. These trips did however eat into my precious ‘Suitor Meeting Time’ and my relatives were NOT impressed.
It’s funny I think I mentioned in my last blogg that I was lovin’ single life, and the lack of ‘Man Trouble’… well I can tell you that I have been spending my time (not so wisely) over the past few months change that, through no fault of my own… ok maybe a little fault of my own?! ;o)
My folks keep tying to set me up on these ridiculous dates lol… I’m not sure where they are finding these guys but trust me when I say this it isn’t in the usual places… you know… son’s of friends, local super market, work, pubs, bars. clubs even wondering the streets aimlessly wearing a moldy old coat with a brown paper bag in one had and a fag in the other… oh no no no, these guys are in a league of their own… I’m not sure if ‘The Family’ is beginning to get desperate… or as my mother would imply… ‘even the later isn’t crazy enough to put up with my shit’?!!!
**shocked***… Me???!!!
Men are like the bloody London bus service… You wait and wait and wait and wait and then 3 come along at the same time….
Ok so I hate to do the whole ‘Women’s Lib Thing’…
But are ALL men really that stupid!
As if I didn’t have enough on my plate, I decided to embark on ‘The (find Sity a suitable man) Crusade’ on my own… On My Own!!! What was I thinking???... actually accepting an invitation on a date… with a ‘Man’ no less…… I’m telling you this much, the person in question has put the final nail in the coffin… He’s done the rest of the male population a huge favor, that is the last time I am going on a date chosen by ‘me’… from now on I am sticking to what I have discovered to be the best solution to my problems… They are… ‘non-dates’, these are almost the same as dates, but you have no expectation’s of the other person and vise versa… candidates also have to have known eachother for a substantial amount of time before they may participate… I’m still looking! Lol
If anyone wants to know the horror of that date, and no, I will not disclose any names, then email me for further info!
Ok so…
Apart from that…
Work’s work I guess and going ok for the moment… except for the complete imbeciles that I am surrounded by on a day to day basis… I’ll say no more on the topic, but you know who you are!? Look’s like I may get the opportunity to travel around Europe a bit over the next few months, so I’ll keep you guys posted.
And apart from that and the funky dreams I have been having, things are ok.
Ok I’m gonna stop ranting now…
I’m sorry I have been off the radar for a while, but I’m back now…
Hope you all have a fantastic Xmas, and I’ll catch you in the New Year…
(Missin’ you heaps)
Till then….

Game Plan...???
So what’s new in Sity’s world. Well not much to be honest. Things are pretty quiet. The last of the visitor from far, exotic lands have tailed off and I have been left to wonder the streets alone… Well that’s not exactly true. I’ve been hanging out with Vanessa from Peru for the past week, and have decided that she is going to be my new drinking buddy… Well for as long as she stays in London anyway. Have also been spending time with Dan (the new guy at work) and his missus. He’s a lot like me, likes to have a laugh, so we get along great!
If I’m going to get serious about getting my own place in London though things are going to have to calm down a lot more… I’m not sure if that is humanly possible, not for me anyway. I’ve laid the cards down and weighed up my options, and they are as follows:
a) Invest into developing a dump with a friend
b) Buy with a friend
c) Buy in the Midlands
d) Get a better paid job
e) Enroll in some clinical trials
f) Sell vital body organs for cold hard cash
and
g)… and my mother’s personal favorite and solution to all my problems…. Get married!!!
Don’t you just love living in a modern ‘free’ world full of choices?!
I haven’t decided which of my many choices I will pursue yet, but I’ll let you know when I do!
One thing I can be thankful for is the lack of man trouble that I am having at the moment…. That would be a direct result of not actually having a one… A man that is.
It seems to me that every female I know is having trouble related to the male species of this world! It’s quite liberating having your freedom and life to do whatever you please. I only wish my friends could see that. Guess it ain’t that easy when you are sooo close to the situation. All I can say to you guys is, and I know it’s a cliché but… ‘Time is a great healer’. I only hope I won’t be eating my words anytime soon.
Ok I gotta love ya and leave ya kiddies…
Till the next time….. Don’t go changing!
Quick updates:
Congratulations to:
Alick – On getting engaged
Mandy and Dre – Announcing the fact that they are going to be parents

Keep on Movin'
Once again its been a while since I last wrote....
I would like to say that it's because I have opted for the quiet life and that I don’t really have much to write about… Yeah right. Life has calmed down slightly since J and Alexx left London, but not much… Have been to Croatia and have had my Birthday so that was pretty hectic. Have also been spending quite a bit of time with my Dad, my step mum, and my half sister and new half brother… If that makes any sense at all… It’s pretty tough for me to get my head around, so won’t blame you if you are like… ‘huh’?!
Anyway life is pretty good., work has calmed down a bit and so at least I have tome to stop and think… although they may just be luring me into a false sense of security… The calm before the storm.
My main goal in life at the moment is to get myself some digs… so if any of you hear of a place a reasonably priced home that I may be interested in, give me a shout?!
I let you know how things progress on the home hunting front… an who knows once a I get a place sorted maybe you can come and visit?
That’s it for now….
Oh almost forgot… Gonna be catching up with Pete and Narelle (Terry's Aunt and Uncle form Oz) tonight… They are visiting London for a while… Can’t wait, should be fun.
Catch ya later
xx

Facebook warrior ... woohaa!
Hey guys and gals...
How are things. I know I know it’s been ages since I last wrote but as usual I haven't had the time to stop and think. Kindda cool really, but time seems to be flying by way too fast.
Reccon I'm having a midlife crisis... Felt like time is running out on me, and fast.
Still sooo many things I want to do... Haven't got time for work and play or even boyz!!!
Still trying to travel as much as possible... Mainly consisting of short trips around Europe at the moment, Paris, Gerona, Zagreb, Venice, Amsterdam…..
(Things are worse than I thought.. I actually started writing this Blogg over a week ago, and am only just managing to get back to finishing it now… oh dear.)
Anyway it’s been a brilliant couple of weeks… Have had sooo many people visiting from my trip over the past 2 weeks that it was almost like being away again… except for the parts where I had to work… I know, me, work! Lol.
Anyway Firstly I had Sunny and Alexis visiting, from Washington… State (Sunny… being Jesses’ (one of the 3 amigos) girl) Hok the Lithuanian, Lucy from BA and finally this week even J and his bro from Chicago…. It’s been the best.
Picked J up from the airport on Saturday and I swear I thought I was going to throw up from the excitement… nothing to do with having been out to the West End the night before to watch STOMP… for those of you whom haven’t had the chance to watch it yet… do yourself a favor and get down to the theater, I was blown away.
So anyway J is here for one more weekend and then life should get back to normal….???!!! I’m not sure what we will do this weekend, or what I can possibly plan that would match up to last weekend?! Ended up hitting Covernt Garden, Piccadilly Circus, Leister Square, Soho… etc…etc… Not sure what’s left … Brick Lane for sure, and then we’ll have to see where the beer takes us!
I am soooo lovin’ havin’ him here… missed him heaps.
Apart from all the visits things at home are settling down… Jobs going well… tough, but interesting and I’m being kept busy which keeps me out of half as much trouble as I would normally be getting into. Have been spending time with my family and friends which is great… Even went to a 4 day rave in Spain with Shane and Jammy… (it was the best DnB rave ever and I’m not sure how the one in Amsterdam in November is gonna scratch up, guess we will have to wait and see… get to Inno-In-The-Dam). Even managed to go to a wedding with my mum where I caught up with my dad (biological), his new misses and my new half brother and half sister… they are soooo cute. The wedding was massive… don’t know if you have ever been to an Indian wedding, but to put into perspective there were 1400 people there….none of whom the bride and groom will know!!! I went along to this one ‘cos it was actually the first wedding that I had ever been to where I knew the bride! Not really that great for me though ‘cos she’s a year younger than me, so it was open forum form me to get a grilling about being old, single and a spinster followed by my relatives and their friends trying to set me up with any guy with a pulse!!! Kept telling them no self respecting guy that hadn’t been committed at least once in his life would want to set up home with me…. Didn’t stop them from trying though…lol… Oh well.
Gotta dash…Will get some pics up as soon as possible, promise…. In fact the only reason I have time right now to finish this blogg off is ‘cos one of the servers at work has gone down!!! Oooops…. Anyway enough rambling… better get back to geeking it up.
Missin’ you lot like crazy... as alwways.
Sity… in a beautiful, sunny London!

Project... Where
Hey Guys
I know it’s been a while, but things have been a little crazy of recent!?
What with the job hunt, and then ending up with two!!! Don’t worry I’m not gonna go down the workaholic rout again. I have chosen only one… The one that by chance involves travel… surprise, surprise. Possibly not the best choice for me? Time will tell I guess.
Anyway I’m now officially an IT ‘Project Consultant’. Something I have never done before. Very challenging even a little scary at times…? But I wouldn’t have it any other way ;o)
I’ve been with this global telecoms company for 3 weeks, and I know that you will probably be disgusted but I have already been sent away for work, to Paris. It was a tough week of work and play and catching up with travel buddies… Pierre (Guatemala) and Greg (Thailand) who is actually in London at the moment!
Got back yesterday and am back working at the usual London office… Not for too long though… Off to Spain this week, should be back on Tuesday so I guess I’ll give you another update after then… Don’t worry I’m sure I won’t be able to sustain this jet-setting lifestyle for much longer?!
Other than the new job life is pretty quiet… Spending most of my time hanging out with family which I love.
Hope everyone is safe and well?
Write soon, let me know what you guys are up to.
I’ll get some more recent photos up when I get the chance….
I just signed up to ‘Facebook’ too… You should check it out, I warn you though it is highly addictive. The Internets version of Cocaine.

Back in the Big Smoke
So after a few hard weeks of partying followed by a couple of weeks job hunting I have landed myself a gig in London's Charring Cross as a Project Consultant. Last week was my first week back to work I over a year, and all things considering it wasn't too painful.
I love being in The City and the fact that the sun was shining for me, helped... A lot!
Ask me again at the end of this week, and maybe things will be different, at least it's a 3 day week?!
I still feel like I am away a little bit seeing as I have had a friend from Oz staying with me for the past week... ('Hey Scottie')... Gonna miss him now that he's moved out :o(
The bank holiday weekend was fantastic.... went to Brighton with Scott to hang out with my lil sis, and also managed to hang out with Rob (also and Ozzy) who I met in Rio.... was sooo nice to see them both.
Back to work tomorrow...it's pretty interesting and the people are great, hopefully I get to travel too...
Not much else to report, guess I will give you an update when life gets a little more interesting.

Not much to Report
So I thought nothing would change while I was away?!
Well, it has and it hasn't. It's nice that all my friends are still around and that I have had ample oppertunity to hang out with them... The joy of being unemployed lol
But since I have been away pretty much all of my friends have moved, bought houses, got engaged or even married or had babies!!! I mean thats important stuff!!!
It feels like everyone is growing up and for the first time in my life
I am jobless, homeless, partnerless and pennieless all at the same time. Back to square one, but I guess this my oppertunity to recreat myself.
Watch this space... lol
On a lighter note have to say what a fantastic time I had at Pykie's leaving do (Good luck in Ibiza) and another one of Laura Harris' Ledgendary House Parties.
You can check out the pics on Flickr.
It was soooo nice seeing all those old faces again.
Till the next installment...

Back with A vengeance
That’s right I’m back and let me tell you it’s been one hell of a week!
I couldn’t have come back at a better time, Bank Holiday weekend and it’s been innnnnsane, what with The Boat Race, BBQ’s and Reunions topped off with some amazing British weather.
I have to confess hat it’s awesome to be back.
I missed my friends and family including the new additions that I hadn’t even met yet!
Ok so there’s been a few surprises, a couple of house moves, a few number changes, some more weddings and even babies, but I’m pleased to see that some things will never change and that my friends are still as crazy as ever!
I’m living back at home which I know is NOT cool, but it’s cheap and nice it’s nice to be able to spend tie with my mum and sis… for now anyway.
I think I’m gonna ease myself back into the work scene very, and I mean very gently… Not even gonna think about doing anything of the sort (work that is) until next month… Don’t wanna sound like a princess, but I still have loads of people that I need to catch up with and even then I think I will acquire a bar job 3 days a week over the summer well, I don’t want to over exert myself, besides I wanna enjoy the sun… I know, I know, like I didn’t get enough over the year?!
From beautiful, sunny London City

p.s. Will get some pics up asap

Going out with a Bang
My last couple of days in Rio were.... How can I put it... bloody fantastic... fantastic but messy none the less...
Almost missed my flight... after trekking up Sugar loaf Mountain and hangliding over Rio and hitting the biggest street party in Brazil, I was beat, not to mention drunk as a lord and subsequently completely hungover... All in all the best 2 days of my life.
I managed to get a great team of people together to paint the City red with, and even convinced a few people to jump off a cliff with me!!! It was great... The hangliding that is... something that I have always wanted to do and a great way to end my trip. The street party was insane... soo many people, sooo many bars, and toooo many drinks.
I'm going to be sorry to say goodbye to Rio, it's been a great place. I was apprehensive about coming here because of what I heard about the crime but after being here I would recommend it to anyone... It's completely safe as long as you keep your wits about you, stick to the policed areas, travel in groups and don't get completely drunk and provoke boyz into play fighting with you and hitting you in the arms as hard as they can.... hmmm... I wonder who did that...???!!! wooops... check out the photos if you wanna see the damage... It's not as bad as it looks... besides you should have see the state of the other guy... honest... lol
Anyway guess the next place that I'll catch you from is home....?!!!

Where Music and Passion were always the fashion
I have left the bright lights of Sao Paulo City for the beautiful beaches of Rio, more specifically I am currently residing just off Copacabana Beach... Probably the most famous beach in the world...!?
The past few days have been rife with Favella parties, Beach parties, Hostel parties and almost but not quite a boat party... have to wait to see what becomes of that.
I have also been trying to do the touristy thing, hiking, seeing the sights and have at least managed to go and see the big guy himself... Christ The Redeemer.
Rio is beautiful, everything about it is beautiful... even the graffiti here is beautiful... Unfortunately it isn´t always safe to carry a camera around so I have had to invest in a classic wind up for and have been taking most of my photos in Brazil with that... That means ALL of my photos from Sao Paulo too... guess you´ll have to wait for those ones.
Anyway not quite sure what my plans are for the rest of the week... causing mischief (which I seem to have picked up a reputation for doing...???... me...??? ;o)... never!!!) and generally trying to relax... maybe catch a footy match and I hear there is a street party in Rio somewhere this weekend so should be hittin´ that.
Will update you with all the details later...
Oi Oi Oi from Rio

Bueneeeeesiomo Buenos Aires
Have spent the past 4 days wondering around this vast city trying to get to know it as well as I can in the short amount of time that I have... No easy feat I can tell you! It´s bloody huge... It´s been made easier though by the fact that Dani, Rocio and Lucy have been here to help me out. I´ve had soooo much fun hanging out with the girls from Central America. We have been having a ´few´Argentinian drinks together and loads of great food... honestly the food here is amazing!!!
Apart from that not much else to report... great hostel, wicked weather, brilliant company, fantastic shopping... what more could a girl ask for apart from a slight cold all´s well in Sity´s world
Chio for now

Inca`d Out
It`s official...
I am hardcore...
Got back to Cusco from the 4 day Inca hike yesterday and have pretty much been awake for about 28hrs, well, The Trek Team had to celebrate it`s victory.
I have been told that I am pretty tough by other people that have done the trek because I carried my own pack instead of paying a porter to carry it for me... well, I just didn`t feel right getting someone else to carry my stuff for me. I have to admit though that the hike was probably the single most hardest thing that I have ever done, what with the altitude sickness and the hours of uphill steps, I wasnt`t sure if I was going to make it, I would never have given up thiough, even if it killed me... It was oh so worth it... Machu Picchu was breath taking.
I`ve managed to get some photos up now, so you can take a look if you like.
I`m off to Argentina today to celebrate St Patrics day in style and hang out with the girls in Buenos Aires
Guess I`ll catch you from there

Lake Titi… What?
Peru is beautiful… a mixture of snow capped mountains, rivers, lakes, rolling hills and flat nothingness… What I love most about it is that it seems to have escaped much of the westernization that I have seen in many parts of rural Central America, and ´yes´ even though some places do put on ´The Show´ for the tourists, many people still live as they used to before Westernization took over
I took an overnight trip to Lake Titicaca… Although the lake itself was nothing to write home about the journey there and the lakes inhabitants made the 6 hr trip completely worth while.
It’s amazing to see how the indigenous people actually live out on the lake on floating islands made from reeds. Words can’t really begin to describe this unique colony.
I’ll try and get some photos up as soon as possible… Won’t be fore a while as I am embarking upon the 4 day hike also known as ´The Inca Trail´ to Machu Picchu tomorrow morning at 6am… Wish me luck I hear that it is grueling.
Guess I’ll chat to you again after the hike… if I make it back??!!

Miami Vice
I knew I was in trouble the moment I set foot in my hostel dorm room.
I was greeted by 2 English lads that were getting ready for another wild night out on the town.
Call me naive, but I didn’t realize that it was Spring Break… I haven’t experienced anything like that for quite a while… If you like getting completely ´dispatched´ as Luke (English lad no. 1) would say, watching people strip and hanging out on the beach all day nursing a hangover, Miami during ´Spring Break´ is just the place for you!!!
3 days was enough… Me, Luck and Ollie (English lad no. 2) spent our time… well drinking mainly to be honest, but also recruiting any possible victims to the cause. We made a lot of friends and even managed to get ourselves invited to a Victory Secret party… which I hasten to add we never made it to.
Anyway after hitch hiking to Miami International and a grueling 30 hr journey, I made it safe and sound to Cuzco, Peru.
See Ya Later Miami

Farewell Friend
As I prepare to leave Panama City (did the touristy thing in Panama City... Canal, City tour... you know how it is) and Central America for that matter to head to Florida, Miami, I reflect back on the past 8 weeks with nothing but fond memories. Through the good and bad times (and believe me its had its ups and downs) I have been accompanied by some fantastic people. From Mike in Mexico to Hok in El Salvador to The Boyz the rest of the way.
I wish I could mention all the great times (but there have been too many) and all the people that I have had the pleasure to encounter.. you know how you are, and all the people that have helped me through the good and bad times. I will miss you dearly. I hope that we will meet again in the future.
I am going to miss Central America, for the people the culture and the diversity, but am really looking forward to the next and final leg of my journey... Florida for a quick break and then on to South America.
Guess I'll catch up with you guys in Florida
From Central America Over and Out

Picturesque Panama
From what I have seen of Panama so far, it is stunning. Unlike the mountainous beauty of Honduras the waters surrounding Panama´s Caribbean Islands of Bocas Del Toro are pristine.
13 of us set out from Puerto and after many hurdles and our final hairy Central American boarder crossing and a very ´cozy´ colectivo we made it to Bocas. From the 13, 7 were left standing, and what an amazing 7. Rocio, Danni, Andy, Dave, The Boyz )if you don´t know who they are by now, shame on you... Jesse and Sean aka José and Jean)and me.
We have spent the past few day hanging out on the Island of Bastimentos where we drank rum, got better acquainted and I actually managed to cook a meal for us all using only what I could get from the local supermarket... ´Yes, I actually cooked´. It was interesting and I´m not quite sure what to call it, but it hasn´t killed anyone... yet, and it was edible... Not bad for me.
We also took a boat tour around the islands where we spotted some dolphins and budgies... :o) We also snorkeled and I saw some of the most amazing coral that I have ever seen in my life... the water was crystal clear, vis was around 30 meters!!!
We saw some great marine life too, and even managed to get a fish for our dinner.
We hung out on the beach and swam in the sea and played baseball... or rounders... whatever you wanna call it. All in all we had a great time.
Back on the mainland killin´ time before we head to David tomorrow where I will say a very teary farewell to The Boyz... I don´t know what I am going to do without them... Guess we will have to wait and see
Next update should be from Panama City

Pura Vida
Puerto Viejo has got to be my most favorite place in Costa Rica... I don't know why it is, but I just love the Caribbean Coast.
Everything is really chilled out here, although a little expensive. Me and the boyz are camping at Rocking J's a really cool hostel right o the beach.
We have managed to hook up with Geoff (Sean's friend from San José) again which is really nice, and the four of us have been hangin' out here for the past few days.
Heading to Panama tomorrow, which means another boarder crossing but also the last of my Central American countries, and farewell to the lads.
Guess the next update will be from Panama, somewhere.
Take it easy and Pura Vida from Costa Rica

p.s. Happy Birthday Akshay
