Places to Go
This page layout is based off of the Ruthsarian Skidoo Layout. All design related compliments should be routed to the skidoo-master.
You'll note the colours didn't change from the template to the end result - I blame it all on the template using colours I love! I may change it to blues and silvers or shades of green at a later date, but at this point I enjoy the current scheme to much to let it go.
The Obligatory Welcome Message
Years ago I used to have a website on GeoCities - we're talking way back when before Yahoo! purchased the company. It was known, of course, as the screaming pages. Filled with "late teens - early 20 something" angst, rants and the hobbies/interests of the day. Funny how you can come full circle in just over a decade.
When I travelled to India in 2003 I started a basic blog (sans the pretty blogging software) to keep everyone informed back home. When I announced to friends and family that I was heading to the Philippines, the first thing I was asked was whether or not I'd be keeping another travel journal.
As anyone who's spent time reviewing my India journal knows I've been pretty lax in adding information to my Philippines journal this past few months. That's mainly due to my spending way too much time at work. Since I'm scheduled to return to the Philippines a number of times in 2006 (and in fact am back in Manila as I type this) I hope to have more to say about this beautiful region of the world throughout the year.
Site Updates
- New blog has been added to the site. Some bits and bobs about my current travels to Manila will appear here on occassion. If you're visiting to view my travel journals, you might want to spend a few minutes visiting the blog as well. As always, feel free to comment away.
- Began Manila (trip 4) travel journal.
- I've changed the way photos are displayed for the Manila and India travel journals and have set aside specific folders for the trips in a photo gallery. You should now be able to view smaller versions of the pictures when the page loads. You can view larger versions of the photos and any comments I've added by clicking on the picture. You'll also be able to access the photos from India and Manila from the same page, so you'll no longer need to move between different sections of the site.
- Updated links on the time wasters page.
- Finally got around to putting stuff on my friends page.
