http://samtrip.blogspot.com/2006_07_01_archive.html
Sunday, July 30, 2006. Rooftop View from the Hostel. This morning, my friend Bo, from Finland, and I decided to visit the near by Eastern Palace complex called Changdeokgung. We joined an English speaking tour because we had to be accompanied by a tour guide. After ten minutes of walking the complex, we came upon the centrepiece of the grounds - Injeongjeon Hall. Gate from Changdeokgung Complex. Injeongjeon Hall for Coronations and Foreign Envoys. Bryan Stuart and me. A Korean Noodle-master at Work.

Life in Barcelona: First Stop of 2007: Madrid
http://senoritawilson.blogspot.com/2007/01/first-stop-of-2007-madrid.html
A journal of Sarah's time in Europe (2006/2007). Jueves, enero 04, 2007. First Stop of 2007: Madrid. Life is never dull with Dixon and Howorun in my life. While our Barcelona new years wasn't quite as crazy as anticipated, the trip to Madrid this past Monday was fabulous! I really like the B&W setting on my camera, so to start here are some typical shots of the city. Also, this city is in full Christmas shopping swing (which they will celebrate this Saturday) and thus the streets were almost impossible t...

Nine Week Wanderlust: August 2006
http://samtrip.blogspot.com/2006_08_01_archive.html
Monday, August 07, 2006. Frenzy of Umbrella Shoppers (when it started only spitting). Later in the evening, I met up with Bryan and Lyndsay again, this time in the American-full (due to a Military base) Itaewon district, known for a busier nightlife. We randomly found a Canadian bar full of Canadiana such as license plates, hockey jerseys, and T-shirts with slogans such as "Get the pUCK out! We enjoyed a few drinks with the ex-patriot crowd. Bry in the Bar. Wooden Hand Rails for Stairs (Palace Museum).

A journal of Sarah's time in Europe (2006/2007). Sábado, enero 20, 2007. Since my weekend in Stuttgart much has happened, so here is just a brief summary until I have time to write more detailed stories (if my pace remains the same these will likely be told from Canada). In the afternoon, my second tour was through the Bavarian mountains and down into the Salzburg Salt Mine. Again, annoying tourguide, but very cool to see. Today (Saturday), Neil took me on a tour of the city of Graz. Just beautiful!

Life in Barcelona: On the road in Stuttgart
http://senoritawilson.blogspot.com/2007/01/on-road-in-stuttgart.html
A journal of Sarah's time in Europe (2006/2007). Domingo, enero 14, 2007. On the road in Stuttgart. Well my final farewell party (/Bartec's 24th Birthday party) Friday night was a good time, but it was very sad to say goodbye to those people I've spent all of my time with for almost 8 months now. I hope I will someday visit them in their home countries (Australia, Poland and Brazil), and that they will also come to Canada. It feels like I'm in an IKEA catalog). After that we took the S-Bahn to a smaller ...

A journal of Sarah's time in Europe (2006/2007). Miércoles, noviembre 22, 2006. Peyroux @ the Palau. Last night I saw the American born jazz musician from Paris, Madeleine Peyroux, perform downtown at the Palau de la Musica concert hall as part of the Barcelona Jazz festival. This building is amazing, and the atmosphere was perfect for some oldschool jazz. The band accompanying her was phenomenal; especially the piano and trumpet players. I was able to snap a couple of pictures during the show. The way d...
