About this blog

If you're reading this welcome message, it would seem you have stumbled across the travel journal of Charis and Ona. Regardless of whether you're here because the link was given to you or you just thought you'd like the story behind our podname, we'd like to take the opportunity to send a big wave, a couple of hai chiizu's and insist you pull up a chair and sit in on the madness, even if it's just for a little while!

Well, now that that is out of the way, let's get on with it!
