About this blog

After finishing university last July (A.K.A drinking yourself silly and having the time of your life for three years) my life now seemed to have no direction and the last thing I was going to do was enter the 9-5 grind. So Ive spent the last 7 months playing poker to fund my round the world trip:

Japan - Thailand - Malaysia - Singapore - Australia - New Zealand - Fiji - America

This is the first traveling I have done so I havent got a clue whats in store but cant wait to find out...
