I am totally enjoying your site. I am bouncing around and each link is a treasure and the overall sprit and style of your writing is captivating and just keeps one glued to the material. When a section is up, one starts dashing around looking for the next tab! Oh yes, and of course I have stumbled across a few trinkets such as something you wrote about a boss from somewhere—– and it said:
“Thankfully, I managed to do so, and during my interview, when I asked about the expectations in regard to travel and vacations – my future boss said, “If you so much as check your email while you are on vacation, I’ll be angry. What’s the point of vacation then?” Talk about love at first interview.”
Wade! Thank you for the thoughtful comments! I’m so happy that you enjoyed exploring the site …and especially happy you found those little ‘trinkets’ — I wonder who it could be that I was referring to?? 😉

How r you? Your profile is just amazing! Wonderful!! Keep on taking to the places where most of us will never be able to visit! Congrat’s! Your instaprofile is already a trip!! 🙂
Samer – great website! It’s great that you have kept meticulous details of all the places you’ve been. For your journal entries and maps, do you use Travellerpoint? I enjoyed your interview with Stefan as well on his podcast.
Thank you Tom! I actually use a WordPress plug-in which is no longer supported called “Nomad Map” – will need to use something else in the near future, maybe Travellerpoint is the answer, thanks! Also, thanks for listening to my interview and glad you liked it! 🙂

I have actually now included a couple of the cities in your list into the list of cities I intend on visiting, namely Vienna, Dubrovnik and Zagreb.
