east coast of northern(ish) sweden looking over towards finland. part of the skuleskogen national park. i've never seen pine growing on rocks at home but here you go.
RASPBERRIES
oh the joy of it
German ex -military training shoes
not really loving life with these little puppies. i will never buy any german made or endorsed footwear again!
contemplating failure
11 days no shower. bike in ditch. dan in bus station.
tribute to quark
quark is now among my favourite foods. this german delight needs to be made available in NZ, anyone know if it is or do i need to start a racket?
beautiful scenery in Poland, the mountains and lakes werent bad either.
while taking a holiday from travelling in the Tatras I sported an Amish Tickler / Monoburn, you should have seen the ladies flock.
educating the locals about NZ customs.
Brown dog listening attentively while the local wildlife considers the proposal that sheep smacking battons are issued by customs on arrival in NZ (prodominantly for use in Auckland city.)
anti-communism festival in Czech.
slight camera problem created the dead pixels around my general mouth area.
Maori hits Prague
here is the brown dog trying to spread his dna in prague bus stops (for the good of tangatawhenua.)
white st patricks weekend
yeah it's gets pretty cold over here at this time of year. it's meant to be getting better at the moment.
guinness anyone?
this is the temple bar (foreign drinking area) in dublin on st patrick's day. plenty of lingerers, drunken people and street performers.
Small-man-syndrome?
I love how small the people over in Asia are, I would recommend it to anyone with even a hint of small-man-syndrome (that means you lance.)
Travel - Myanmar style
this was the truck that we hitch-hiked on to, there is not limit on how many people they would put on these trucks, the women down the back were literally sitting on each other.
No rules and/or limits
This is the Minsk, what a wonderful machine.
Matthew John Wallace
As this picture alludes to, Matt was secretly scanning for a potential wife. He liked the look of this one and made a deposit to come back and check up on in a few years. PS: This story is not at all true, just needed add some lies so I can continue calling it a blog.
Forced alcoholism...?
I had almost completely weaned myself off alcohol but after staying with Nga my habit was put into overdrive. As the photographic evidence suggests I had very little option but to drink (otherwise it would have been on my shirt). Nga - I'm just joking, you were a wonderful host.
All dressed up
This was during Nga's sisters (Van) wedding, we all had our best clothes on. Some how Matt still managed to look homeless and like he had been awaken from a dumpster.
moto anyone?
these guys chase the buses as you arrive in Phnom Penh reaching through the window to enquire if you would like a ride to town (at extortionist rates). They will also get your bag without permission, very cheeky little buggers. if you tell them you dont need their services they will still follow you for a few hundred meters incase you change your mind.
pain
me getting tiger balm rubbed into my wounds. these woman came to my rescue after laughing uncontrolably for some time. PS: my shoulder is still sore now, over 3 weeks later!
New Years in Cambodia
This was just off the end of the deck at our guest house in Phnom Penh where we were paying US$1 each per night.
Christmas in Cambodia
24 box of local beers to improve the 5 hour boat ride starting at 8am. It is pretty cool how they let you travel on the roof of these boats but I suspect they wouldn't even look back if a drunken kiwi fell overboard while trying to relieve some bladder pressure.
The Power House in Cambodia
For US$200 he managed to fire this B40 rocket launcher. I have the video, will try to share soon. PS. for another US$300 you could shoot a cow or for US$2,500 you could drive and fire a tank! Everything in Cambodia has a price tag (if you ask).
The Power House in Thailand
Yes there is a Dunkin' Donuts in Thailand and yes The Power House did manage to sniff it out!
Refugee Camp
This was near the Burmese - Thai boarder. Armed officers were on either side and the houses were very dense. Later that evening we were offered to come back and play football but unfortunately had to leave for bangers!
loaded sawngthaew
This was us for 6 hours. Locals coming and going. These little guys act like busses in remote areas of Thailand.
Feeding time at the zoo
Day three on the trek and matt had his massive hunger on, would have eaten rocks if the guide told him they had nutritional value.
Karin Tribe
This is from our trekking, this little dudes come around and sell bracelets and others to visiting trekkers.
Lazy $NZ2 beers
sitting around with a funny irish dude trying to dilute the excess concentrations of blood in my alcohol system.
Courier
Transport Thai style, what can I say!
Bangkok Traffic
view from the back of a tuk-tuk from a typical intersection. All the tuk-tuk's and motor bikes make thier way to the front
Stockcar and Insane Pilot
This is the chump that drove us like a maniac from the BK airport to BK city. Notice the condition of his demo derby car.
Hi
charming huh...

No frigging messed up photos of NYE (well, no more messed up than I usually look) as I sat on the computer the whole night in disbelief about the shitty programmes on TV and the fact that I was at home with Hannah. Who slept. Damn her. So yeah, hope you had a good one! xox
