Thomadventures: Learning to learn
http://thomadventures.blogspot.com/2010/03/learning-to-learn.html
MY OTHER PHOTO GALLERY. Monday, March 1, 2010. Learning to learn, what does this mean? When a new discipline or activity catches our attention, to the point that we decide to devote a tremendous amount of our time and energy to it, instead of focusing entirely on the content do we actually question ourselves enough, if at all, about learning (i.e. the process of absorbing and making ours new skills and knowledge)? What if learning was a skill in itself? This is an attempt to explore these questions.

Thomadventures: What's up ?
http://thomadventures.blogspot.com/2010/02/whats-up.html
MY OTHER PHOTO GALLERY. Thursday, February 18, 2010. Well, it’s been a while since i posted anything, so what happened? A lot and nothing! The second leg of the Eurasia trip was a lot shorter than expected, I flew back to Turkey with a new passport, bought yet another shitty bicycle in Istanbul and set off towards Ankara, the capital. I needed at least that to bring back to mind my Tibetan experience,. So I still covered the 500km to Ankara. Had my share of interesting. Ces, as usu. Not sure how much I&#...

Thomadventures: India 2011
http://thomadventures.blogspot.com/2011/08/india-2011.html
MY OTHER PHOTO GALLERY. Saturday, August 6, 2011. From January to April, i travelled to India with my friend Andy. We were lucky enough to get sponsored by Royal Enfield, who lent us for free 2 beautiful motorbikes. Andy stayed only for the first month before heading back to cold old London to work. The following is an article i wrote for Royal Enfield about that first month with Andy. A dog runs across the road right in front of me, drawing me back to reality as I slam my brakes. It was a close one&...

Thomadventures: Traceur
http://thomadventures.blogspot.com/2012/07/traceur.html
MY OTHER PHOTO GALLERY. Thursday, July 19, 2012. My very good friend Rudy Duong, who happens to be one of the old school Lisses guys from back in the day has just launched his own brand of Parkour clothing, after 4 years of hard work to make it happen (an obstacle course in it's own right! His dedication to staying true to the original Parkour spirit and values no matter the amount of efforts it involves is, i think, of great contrast to a lot of the crap you see commonly today. Best of luck Rudy.

Hinengaro Tinana: Fim das férias
http://tokuara.blogspot.com/2009/04/fim-das-ferias.html
Segunda-feira, 13 de abril de 2009. Que outro título poderia este post ter, senão este que é o reflexo do último dia de férias, dia esse em que exponho parte dos meus pensamentos e ideias. Nestes longos dias de férias, parte deles foram de introspecção profunda, de uma busca contínua por mais conhecimento como é costume. A outra parte dos meus dias, foram também de muita preguiça, muito computador mas também de muito treino, digamos que quase equilibrados. Emília das Meias às Riscas. Ahahah, acho que é j...

Hinengaro Tinana: Livre
http://tokuara.blogspot.com/2009/05/livre.html
Sexta-feira, 29 de maio de 2009. Olá a todos, o fim das aulas está perto e o verão mesmo a porta. Tenho de me pôr bom destas tendinites, pegar em mim e realizar mais uma nova jornada de treino neste verão, como todos os meus amigos anseiam para poderem treinar e como assim fazemos e planeamos todos os anos. Novos objectivos vão ser traçados, novas experiências vividas e já está em vista Londres, Aldershot e se houver mais dinheiro para mais, digamos que muita coisa boa poderá vir a ser feita. Eu cá já le...

Hinengaro Tinana: Exaustão
http://tokuara.blogspot.com/2009/03/exaustao.html
Domingo, 15 de março de 2009. Exaustão e preguiça percorre me o corpo e a mente. Estou a precisar de férias, já não consigo ser o minimamente produtivo no meu exigente espaço, stress acumula-se, embora não queira viver nele é praticamente impossível. Trabalhos e mais trabalhos, testes, e o problema não é acabá-los mas sim passar por eles. Possuo por vezes o caminho iluminado mas outras vezes contento-me a caminhar nele apalpando e sentindo-o com as minhas mãos, com o meu tacto. Mas essa possibilidade par...

Thomadventures: Still alive !
http://thomadventures.blogspot.com/2010/10/still-alive.html
MY OTHER PHOTO GALLERY. Friday, October 8, 2010. Well well well, i thought i'd throw in a little update, after all this time. I went to the South of France on motorbike with a friend, and then alone to Spain and Morocco, awesome times overall, even the bad ones such as breaking down in the desert or being chased by people in the mountains. The natural hospitality of arabian people is inspiring, just as i had thought it would be and this encourages me even more to (finally) head towards the Middle-East.

MY OTHER PHOTO GALLERY. Friday, April 17, 2009. Eurasia 2009, Part 1. France : 16 to 18th of February. Around 4pm, my mother drops me off at a petrol station along the highway that goes through Tours. I want to go all the way to Asia using all kinds of modes of transportation. I leave with 7kg on my back for the first leg of the trip. However, i don't get very far on this first half-day of hitchhiking and i sleep behind a pile of wood near a petrol station. Italy : 18th of February to 14th of March.

Life Blog: August 2009
http://lifeblogchris.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
My good friend Ben has just started up a blog as he prepares to depart for 5 months in Kenya. As I was looking up and down the few extras that adorn the side of his page I found myself idly clicking the links; first I clicked the link to my own blog and read through that as though I had stumbled across something both completely new to me and thoroughly interesting (well, isn't it! John Piper: Desiring God. Mark Driscoll: The Resurgence. Have a look. Peace. Like a tone of bricks. It is called Storylines.
