Well my dear freinds if you ever doubted me (don't blame ya if you did mind you) you were wrong.
I HAVE BOOKED MY WORLD TRIP. Begins on Feb 26 2003 and ends a year later (maybe?)
First stop: Brazil.
I am selling my car, giving up my rented flat, blowing my savings and leaving some good freinds behind but if your job sucks and your feet are itchy, you gotta go.
I am of course shitting my pants.
Heres the route. Im alone for quite a while, so if anyone (seriously) wants to meet up for a night out, let me know.
.
LONDON, fly to SAO PAULO where I go south to Florianopolis for the carnival. A month in Brazil then on, overland for 2weeks to SANTIAGO, CHILLI (via Buenos Aires maybe), then off to AUKLAND, NZ for just four days. From there it's off to FIJI for a couple of weeks to meet a mate of mine. Then its over to SYDNEY, OZ for 7 months working. Then the plan is 2004, leave OZ and go to HONG KONG, then a hell of a long way overland to BEIJING to see the great wall and stuff, then home to BRIGHTON. Skint no doubt.
So, you wanna meet up? Let me know.
Anyone in South America advise a good route to Chili?
All help appreciated. Thanks, really.
Dunno how to end this so... YIPEEEEEEEE. That should do.

that sounds like a helluva trip...i'd love to do that...good luck!
dunno about uploading on the road tho...i've looked for web cafes and they rarely allow ftp access that i've seen...also, you may need a laptop to download from your digicam because web cafes don't have the software...

Werkheiser:
Great stuff. Thats a deal. All I know is "how are you?" which is "todabing" although as you can see I have no idea how it is spelt.K9kumer: Laughing here. Go on do it, take a dump on that desk in fact. Yeah!

re: the ftp deal can't u/l your files from ie? I'm sure most net cafes have ie browsers.
Link your site if you have it up, I'd love to visit.
cheers, and grats on the incredible journey!

FTP in IE:
ftp://ftp.USERNAME@YOURSITE.com
Just drag and drop from there. I have come across a few servers that don't recognize ie as an ftp client, but in most cases it's fine.
best of luck!

hey vinney, wow.. .. Its madness!! good luck to you.. I feel like going to Australia and working... I hope you enjoy your travels..
about documenting the trip.. have you considered using a blog? you wouldnt have to fiddle with ftp or static pages using a blog.
you just fill in a standard webform every time you want to add a new entry. and uploads are simple too..
I kept one when I went to iran..I recommend greymatter.. if you need any help let me know.
