Part 2

So where did I leave off??.. Oh right. yes yes. It was in Rome.

I was really thirsty

Who knew strangers could turn into friends so fast.

Colloseum was mine

We had a way with cops that night

Rome was perfect.... Until one day I woke up on a farm in Scotland

work! work! work!

A bike to the shore.

Weekend in Edinburgh.

we made it

Goodbye Campletown

Hello Italia.

Coulnd't resist.

"This is sparta!"

..Just relexin in the sun....

The real one! So hard to sneak a picture.

Made it to Florence:

These guys look familiar? (Prague)

Bicycle ride.

Friends in Naples.. looks more like a class photo. ha

Cinque Terre:

Somewhere south italy. swimming with fish in blue caves!

Cant forget about cliff jumping! ride before I jumped a 65 footer.

Goodbye Italy

Hi Greece!

Nothing like meeting old friends in foreign countries. : )

Budapest.

PINKPOP 08! (rage against the machine, foo fighters, incubus, + bout 60 more.. 120,000 heads) we met these cool dutch dudes or were staff and snuck in! picture with guitarist from Tenacious D.

dont ask

Had to go out with a bang

One journey ends.

And another begins. (ally in faro Portugal)

Ended up in Sevilla, Spain

Then on to Malaga

Beach of Torremolinos

At last! Final destination- The Great Rock and colony of Gibraltar.

Broke and homeless... Forced to find work

On the way to work one day. Caribbean restaurant on the docks.

Saved up enough. The Journey continues.
Morocco

Senegal

Found a carpool to Gambia. Words can describe the horrible and uncomfortable conditions. A seat next to the toilet in a Greyhound bus would be far better then First class in an airplane compared to this ride.

random picture in a village we stopped in

Gambia:

Loved these kids. Still think about em.

last night.

Right before hitting 200km. Im pretty sure I shitted on this guys bike.

The most retard bus ever. broken down in the middle of nowhere

4 days of traveling later: home sweet home

never to far away to pool hop! (if it wasnt for these guys I would have been on the streets.)

Heading to London to look for work

It was a no go.

this was taken at the airport on my last night out of the states. I had been homeless and sleeping in victoria station for a few days. There were no jobs available because of all the uni students on summer break. not to mention my lack of paperwork.

and so... after flying into the states. and hitchhiking back to my front door.. where it all began.... my journey came to an end.

I love my country. I love my freedom. I love the opportunities and potential I am blessed with.

I am so lucky.

Black friday, gonna do some last bit of shopping before my trip... im more broke then i thought i would be leaving. its ok.. should be enough to survive.. and if not.. well ill figure something out.

Getting ready to leave on this trip.. well.. unlike every other journey i have gone on.. i leave this time with no attatchments.. nothing i regret.. nothing i hold onto.. nothing i will miss.. i feel free.. its more spirtual to me.. i feel like my soul can breathe again.. where this is all leading i dont know. i just cant wait to live... and feel alive.. and see what the world has to offer.. and see what i have to give..

free your spirit... free your mind... free your heart... and be all you were meant to be.
