My friend Alistair over at They Do Things Differently There had a good idea yesterday (or tomorrow? the international date line confuses me), and posted a link to the beginning of his account of his year traveling through Europe that he recently returned from. If you haven’t checked him out, or his ladyfriend and traveling companion Tess, or their photoblog, I suggest you do it.
I’d like to do the same thing, since I’ve oddly enough added a bunch of subscribers since I’ve left Moldova (you know, back when I actually had something interesting to write about), but something has gone horribly awry with the “Next Post / Previous Post” function at the bottom of this page and I’m too lazy or incompetent to fix it. Besides, the stuff I wrote at the beginning of my time in Moldova was really overwritten anyway, so if you haven’t read any of that earlier stuff I’d prefer you to not start there. So what I’ve done instead is add a “Random” button at the top that you can click away at to your heart’s content in order to get a random post.
What I’ll also do here is make a list of what people have told me they’ve enjoyed the most, and mix in a few of my own favorites. Poftim.
Recurring features:
Trips:
- Transylvania: part I; part II; part III; part IV; part V; part VI; part VII; part VIII; part IX
- Serbia and Bosnia
Most popular dispatches, in rough chronological order:
- Sic Semper Porkus
- On Frumosity
- Tales from the Moldovan Sticks
- In Which Three Gringos Do the Moldovan Squat
- Where the East Ends and the West Begins
- On the Creepiness of Russian Facebook
- On Dating in Moldova
- Moldova’s Bright Future
- Homecoming
- Reverse Culture Shock Rears Its Hipster Head
- In Which I Discover the Wrong Kind of Attention From the Opposite Sex
If it’s photos you want, you can click visit my Flickr (the link is also up top) or here.
For the record, this is my most-liked post of all time. I think I’m insulted.
