Point2Point

The journey continues... Point2Point was just one leg of a greater lifelong travel quest that is still going strong!

My overland leg consisted of an unbroken path through Portugal, Spain, France, Germany, Poland, Slovakia, Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria, Turkey, Iran, Pakistan, India, Nepal, Tibet, China. No support, no sponsors, no media, no gprs; just me and a backpack on a search for home.

FAQ's

Is the blog finished now?
No. With the overland part of this journey now complete(point2point) I have yet to decide whether or not to add additional entries here or on a new blog (and yes it the blog will be on travellerspoint, its a nice place you know). (comments welcome, they help me think!) I am veering on the side of continuing on here. . .

Either way I have decided to update some of the former entries that are severely lacking. Portugal for example; and the Knights Templar 'expedition.' I will let you know here when they are finished. In search of Knights & Legends in the Heart of Portugal is now ready for reading!

What about the other areas of the blog? (we noticed your spelling is crap)
I think that the blog should remain as is. Though still lacking in certain parts, that is the very nature of a blog. When on the travelers road it is not possible to keep it as 'well' written as the last few have been - even with many many typo's and grammar mistakes. What I like about this is that it shows the evolution of this blog, from below par first entries, to apt descriptions, to the telling of the actual stories that happened on the road. It makes it hard to read, but then it was never meant for public consumption, it was a journal. Then people started reading it!

I notice some entries read like a book?
Well spotted. As mentioned, this blog actually started off as my journal, it was easier than emailing myself notes. I like to write. I have in places turned my travels into a written format as that's what I like to read myself. And yes I am also writing a manuscript of my travels. So if you know a publisher or agent interested in a story about a guy with nothing to loose in search of a home, then please let me know!

What Next?
I am still on the road, I will update you here on new entries here, as my search for a home continues...

In the meantime I am writing a series of Articles about other travelers that I like, and updating past entries.

Do you have a website?
No. To be honest I looked at getting one to present my travels and journey a little better. But in reality I cannot afford the cost of hosting. I can buy a domain, but the hosting would set me back financially considering I would want the site up for a few years. If anyone would like to sponsor me some hosting, then let me know!

Easy Navigation of this blog:

It's come to my attention that blog sites can be difficult to read. Where to start? What's interesting etc,.

Yes there is a navigation bar over there on the right and up a bit! But it doesn't do much for me either, though I hear the powers that be at Travellerspoint are updating things soon. In the meantime here are some internal links to this site that might help you a bit better!
