AUSTRALIA | Sun, 5 Oct 2008 | By homeless_harry | Views [1167] | Comments [1]

Well we are writing this blog a good three weeks after we have been in India, so the senses have been dulled a bit, and none too soon.  Rather than writing a funny list of the things we have learned in India, we wanted to give a sense of what it ... Read more >

NORWAY | Sat, 1 Mar 2008 | By bota | Views [984]
