it's alive

that's right, i'm still alive and kickin, and my will be blog now that i have traded the backpack and weary eyes of train travel for a permanent home. i appologize to all you faithful readers--no scoffing, there might a handful--but now i am back and promise a new update everyday for the next 5 days. tales, woes and pictures galore await you, just not today. after all, i only arrived yesterday from a 2000km train ride and moved into a new apartment today. patience grasshopper.
