About me:

I grew up around Boulder, Colorado- one of the greatest cities in the world. I've been travelling on and off for about a year now, and I'm almost out of cash so I'll have to take a break soon. The most exciting thing I've been up to was teaching English in China. I had a great time and met some really amazing people there. Wow- that wasn't cliché at all. I am the first person to have ever said that.

I'm fired up on:

Since I've been in Germany, I've been dedicated to cooking some real American food for the German family I'm staying with. I want to prove to them we don't just eat McDonalds. I really enjoy music, swimming, hiking and learning languages.

Tunes I rock out to:

Travel songs?
Have Love, Will Travel- Black Keys/
Ripple- Grateful Dead/
The Times they are a' changing - Dylan or the Byrds/
Key to the Highway- various people. I think its Big Bill Broonzy's song/
Shuffle your Feet- Black Rebel Motorcycle Club/
Cantor de Mambo- Os Mutantes (maybe. I don't actually know what they're saying)/
and Convoy. Best. Travel. Song. Ever.

Travel style:

I like to stay in one place for a while and see less rather then run around and only catch the impressive stuff.

My Experience Teaching English in China

By expiscor | Location: China | 11/26/06 | Pics: 1

Last summer (2006), I had what was easily the most phenomenal time of my life. Through a Denver non-profit, I traveled with about 20 other college kids to teach English in China. I thought someone out there might be considering doing the same, and so I’ll just relate my time there in the hopes it helps...

Things to do in Berlin besides the Tourist sites

I noticed no one has put up anything about Berlin yet, besides thatgregboy, who I’m traveling with. I’ve been in Berlin for a couple of months, and I thought I would put what I know it out there in case someone is planning on traveling to Deutchland.

- Go to a Herta BSC game. I went to a game...
