James' Travelogues

I had originally created this page as just a photo gallery of pictures taken during my initial trip to Europe. But I needed more than just pictures and witty captions to really capture my experience, so I decided to add a travelogue to go along with those photos. This was initially created for my friends to see and read about my vacation. But in doing so, it bought back plenty of great memories, and I thought this would be a great way to record all of my future travel experiences. So I've decided to maintain this website and to add on to it whenever I decide to take trips elsewhere. This will basically be personal journals of my travel experiences, but on public display for anyone to read.

It took me more than 25 years of my life until I discovered travelling and how great it is for the body, mind and soul. What you see here are in fact the only real travel experiences I have ever had. Travelling has got to be one of the best things anyone can do to break up the monotony and stress of everyday life. So I have made it a point to get away somewhere as much as I can, providing I don't go into debt in the process.

I hope you enjoy reading about my travel experiences (or at least have a look at the pretty pictures :-), and please don't forget to Sign my Guestbook on your way out! For anyone who has been to any of the places detailed here, I hope this brings back some great memories for yourself as well. For those who have never been to any of these places, I hope this helps to give you an idea of what these places are like and helps to convince you to do some travelling of your own.

Happy travelling!
