And here we go

A not inconsiderable number of people kindly pointed out to me that if I have to write a blog, I should mainly post pictures on the blog and not boring stuff like about this and that breathtaking flower in an even more breathtaking landscape on one of the most breathtaking meadows somewhere in the Catalan uplands and the culinary arts in all variations and certainly not philosophize about the life of a traveller and that 'We have so much more than the rest of the world and that's why capitalism is evil and after the journey I only eat snail and earth-scented organic salad and drink the completely overpriced Max Havelar coffee'. Well. Those were almost the same people who thought that I was in a pre-stage of midlife crisis and anyway how I got the idea to travel to almost the other side of the world for 1 year. And that at the age of 37. But that's not the point now.

You asked for it.... I'm writing about the raw hard truth, horrifying, beautiful, sexy, wild, sad, entertaining, annoying, joyful. And if you don't like it... then I don't like you either. Yes, indeed!!
