Stop Press!

Trying to finish Cyprus trip. Four new videos uploaded into previous posts.

After trotting around Southeast Asia over the summer, I'm now back in the UK - Cambridge to be exact. Am trying my best to update as frequently as my clinical course will allow.

Entries on Italy and France two winters ago have been put on hold indefinitely. Read: possibly never. But we shall see.

Entries on Greece and Turkey last winter have also been put on hold for the time being.

Mother cries


Mother begs him to return home. 'No.' He says. Adamantly. Defiantly.

He's short on time. We all are. He's not going to waste it at home. Wasting precious time away. Wasting away. Getting too comfortable. Too complacent. Useless.

He can't see himself in mediocrity. He just can't. It has to be greatness.

People all around him are moving. Changing the world. He's sailing downstream. He's short on time.

Mother starts to cry. He gets slightly annoyed at her for pulling such a dirty trick. If he's ever sent to Hell, it wouldn't be for his disbelief. It'd be for being unfilial.
