Having stopped at Leggat for breakfast and some pretty pricey gas it was onwards down the coast to San Francisco. Being in Redwood National park we took the opportunity to drive through a tree, a pretty surreal and nerve-racking experience (there was almost no margin for error). It w…

Well, I did leave on April 19th from Travis Air Force Base.  The first flight to Yokota, Japan had 50 seats, and I was number 51, so I didn't make it.  Then a plane that was broke the night before got fixed and I was lucky to hop on that plane.  It was making 3 stops.  Hawaii, G…

Don't pay attention to the title, because we actually sat on the mass transit for at least an hour or two.  The metro there stops at every street corner it seems, and possibly multiple times at every storefront.  It honestly is probably as fast walking around SF than taking their crazy lo…

Got up early to go the Post Office to post a load of my souveniers home (like that cowboy hat and baseball bat) - it must be a universal thing that there is always a queue of at least 15 people in the post office, but the staff were all very helpful. Got my hair cut it some trendy salon cos i could…

Locked my doors.  Set my heels.  And swallowed my heart...second star on the left, and on til morning!  I must apologize ahead for the journal entry for this day.  I hadnt slept for the two days preceeding my flight out... Journal Entry: 2007.06.25 07:50am [SFO] - God.  …

a week in Playa del Carmen followed by a week in Cozumel

First time in USA Prolog Dear Reader, first please keep in mind that I am a Polish citizen. Not that it is sth to be particularly proud of … but Poles are particularly pro American (so Am I) and even though we joined Schengen treaty and can travel within EU only with ID – in order to go to US…

San Francisco reminded me of a cross between NYC and New Orleans, though seemed to have more of the NYC hustle and bustle. While the Fisherman’s Wharf and Alcatraz were a lot of fun and the Golden Gate Bridge was neat to see, the city itself was not everything I expected. The traffic was awfu…

Few years ago I did a 4 weeks trip t the American west coast following an invitation from a good friend in San Francisco. We rent a car and explored some of California's beatifull spots. Later on I did a trip by myself as well taking a Greyhound bus to Seattle. It was a time full of impressions and experiences, a time I wouldn't like to miss.

Alrightee now, I'm ready, or am I?  That is the question.  This trip has been in the works for quite some time and I don't think I fully prepared myself for it.  I mean depending on where you plan to travel the prep for it is always different.  In my mind, precautions and planni…

You wouldnt believe the trouble that one boy had to go thru to get to a music festival in the desert...i got off work at 5:30pm, and my flight left SFO at 9:00pm, meaning the plane would board at 8:30pm, meaning id have about 3 hours to get to the airport.  Its amazing what can happen in 3 hou…

Boefie in Amerika, zoals mijn lieve vriendje wuppie dat zegt, haha. Op dit moment hoog in de lucht voel ik me als een koningin in mijn stoel bij de nooduitgang en met Tijs in mijn oren (lees Tiesto). Vanochtend stond ik helemaal brak op maar nix kon deze dag kapot maken! Flying back home to Calif…

Menu: - Lombard Street - The Golden "Grey" Bridge: all we got were pictures of the platform...the fog was sooo thick the bridge itself was no where to be seen... - The Palace of Fine Art - The Exploratorium - Sandwiches at Safeway (not really a destination of note, other than the fact we got O…

I always intended to write about my travels and share advice and singihts to others. Well, that never happened. As I look back, it has not even beem more than a couple of months since I returned. I planned the entire trip before I left. Every detail that i could possibly take care in advance was…
