What? Why? How? (sticky)

Hello and welcome,

Thanks for dropping by. I set this site up to track my progress towards the completion of my 2012 challenge. I'm aiming to travel 2,012km in 20.12 (appx) weeks in the gym or on the road. You can sign up yourself (or find out more) at this website.

Early on in the process I realised that the distance I would be covering would get me from Bristol, UK - where I live - to the outskirts of Rome, Italy. So I've been tracking my route along the way following this map.

I hope to raise a bit of money for Habitat for Humanity in the course of this - there's a justgiving page for that purpose. There is no obligation on anyone to donate - for me this is more about the process.

Something for the weekend?


Hello, and welcome to the weekend.

As a result of my interest in Japan, I follow quite a few Japan-related blogs. Today, kirainet has posted a couple of lovely pictures which I wanted to share.

They were taken in the North of Tokyo. The first image is matcha - green tea (you're probably not going to see a much better example (IMO) of complementary colours!?), the second, a parasol. Both images reflect my photographic preference to zoom in on objects to the point where the background disappears and the objects get cropped..

The full post is here. The whole flckr set is worth a browse tbh.

And one of our own...
