Overland 2010: December 2010
http://singaporetoeurope.blogspot.com/2010_12_01_archive.html
Traveling from Singapore to London by train and bus. Wednesday, December 22, 2010. More than just a trip, more than just a holiday. Back in Singapore, I bought a good bicycle and I cycle several times a week alternating with strength training days of crunches and push ups. And with some advice from my doctor, I have increased my carbohydrate intake a little so as not to loose muscle. But I am now actively taking care of my health. In the coming year, I wish all my friends the opportunity, time and space ...

Overland 2010: Journey's end - a little early, a little short
http://singaporetoeurope.blogspot.com/2010/09/journeys-end-little-early-little-short.html
Traveling from Singapore to London by train and bus. Thursday, September 16, 2010. Journey's end - a little early, a little short. However, in life things happen. I was attending an outdoor party when my father called me and asked me to return earlier than my planned date of the 22 September. When I asked him why? And did a one week workshop with another hero Arno Minkkinen. A friend gave me a hand made card with the words Carpe Diem. September 16, 2010 at 8:48 PM. September 16, 2010 at 9:05 PM. Thank yo...

Overland 2010: Making Harvest while the sun shines
http://singaporetoeurope.blogspot.com/2010/10/making-harvest-while-sun-shines.html
Traveling from Singapore to London by train and bus. Wednesday, October 6, 2010. Making Harvest while the sun shines. I did plan to visit my sister's vineyard for a grape harvest. So last weekend I headed to Bothy Vineyard. I am not a wine drinker, but the fresh grape juice was delicious! I am fortunate for this year, its experiences, the opportunity to reassess what is important in my life and what is possible with what I have. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

http://singaporetoeurope.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Traveling from Singapore to London by train and bus. Friday, April 30, 2010. 45 Anniversary of the liberation. Without planning I got to Song Krang in Chiang Mai, Pii Mai in Luang Prabang and now I have been in Hanoi when they are celebrating the liberation of Saigon. I had a fireworks display right from my hotel room window. I hope my luck continues. Thursday, April 29, 2010. The train ride from Saigon to Hanoi. For those of you wishing to view a gallery of the photos, it is here. One Night in Saigon.

http://singaporetoeurope.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
Traveling from Singapore to London by train and bus. Wednesday, June 30, 2010. St Petersbug in Black and White. St Petersburg - Unending days. After the run down cities of Siberia, and business like Moscow, I was not expecting very much from St. Petersburg. All I had in mind is that the Hermitage has one of world's greatest art collections. My hotel, which I booked through a company called Real Russia. The river Neva, St Petersburg, 23.30. Thursday, June 24, 2010. My last visit to Moscow was short. I...

Overland 2010: March 2010
http://singaporetoeurope.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Traveling from Singapore to London by train and bus. Tuesday, March 30, 2010. I had lunch with an old friend yesterday that told me that I have been talking about this overland trip since I knew her. It must be about ten years ago then that I have been wanting to do this trip. I have had my teeth cleaned and my hair cut. I am excited, I am apprehensive, but I know that after ten years of saying I will do this, tomorrow, I will do this. Saturday, March 13, 2010. Email through the Chinese firewall. I am a ...

Overland 2010: A little statistical overview and some acknowledgements
http://singaporetoeurope.blogspot.com/2010/09/little-statistical-overview-and-some.html
Traveling from Singapore to London by train and bus. Monday, September 20, 2010. A little statistical overview and some acknowledgements. Here is a little summary of the trip. Nothing is exactly accurate, especially since the distances are between cities and the routes were probably longer. I traveled for 160 days. This does not include a nine day break to get my tummy checked up in Singapore. I covered approximately 25,900km by rail, bus or ferry. I used air travel for an additional 4360km. Marian in Be...

Overland 2010: August 2010
http://singaporetoeurope.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
Traveling from Singapore to London by train and bus. Tuesday, August 31, 2010. Lost and found in Latvia. I must admit, when I thought of the Baltic states I remembered Estonia and Lithuania. Estonia because of the composer Arvo Part and Lithuania, I am not sure why I remember it. I thought it was that Lithuania got into the world cup but I stand corrected by a reader. But Latvia? Yes, I am looking after myself. But Riga is not just the medieval old town. It has several outrageous Art Nouveau houses t...

Overland 2010: Estonia Experience
http://singaporetoeurope.blogspot.com/2010/09/estonia-experience.html
Traveling from Singapore to London by train and bus. Monday, September 13, 2010. Perhaps I was tired after five months of travel, perhaps the grey and wetness of autumn had got to me, or perhaps my feeling that my room in Tallinn was 'dirty' put me on edge, but my overall impression of Estonia was ok. I wish I could say more, but really I cannot. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. A little statistical overview and some acknowledge. Journeys end - a little early, a little short.
