Sun is out.

Finnaly the sun is out. It is wonderful. Unfortunately that job fell through. But, I did manage to get some pictures up!















Check out "The Travelling Banana" on Facebook for more pictures!

Ughhh

So I had a terrible past three days. I got robbed and I got stuck in a storm. To top it all off my tarp got Ripped off my tent and blew away, And.....My tent has been blown to shreds. I had to do a midnight dash to the highway in the pouring rain and hail to hitchhike for two hours before someone got me.
Now lets talk about those anarchy kids. What a group of Shit heads. If the world went according to them, society would implode. All they do is steal, fight, and drink. They Gang robbed me (A bunch of cowards too, they cant even do one on one) and then just tried to fuck my shit up. Luckily I had my solid wood cane but push came to shove i had to give up what was in my pockets. But there was no way in hell I would let them have my Bag and they knew it. So after Hiking all the way to france, I come back with half my stuff, tore up, beat up and most of all hungry because I could not find a gas station or food for my life! Ughhhhh
So now I have no idea what to do or what made me decide to come to europe. It seems like travelling like this was a dream and should stay a dream. Fuck the anarchist kids, they really know how to screw up a trip. I am really thinking about coming home and starting over. Doing the whole american thing of just working, and doing nothing. I had my fun. Guess it might be over. A faliure is a faliure.

Fuck me Running

Broke my ankle and got robbed by some gypsy. Fuck that Shit.

Hostel Sun and Moon

Awesome.

I Made it.

Well after my first night here I am realizing things are a bit harder than they seem. My feet are killing me. So now I am walking barefoot around the city. Finding a hostal was a pain in the ass. Most of all I miss my family and friends. BUT......on the better side of things I am really enjoying the city. It is so so so so so so so beautiful here. Not to mention all the bikini clad women walking around. I feel like I am in a dream. Tonights plans are to go to Friday night social club at my old school to meet some people. And have some .50€ beer. :) Also I will stay at a hostal again because I still have not found a good camping spot.
A BIG SHOUT OUT TO THOSE OF YOU WHO ARE DONATING! I APPRECIATE IT ALOT! YOU ARE MAKING MY TRIP POSSIBLE!.

¡¡¡Hola!!!!

Just got to wonderful Barcelona! I am in a Hostel! About to go see the city and find a camping Spot!

The Countdown

2 Days until I leave. Dont feel ready. I am packing and repacking. I hope I have everything...........

Last Weekend.

So last night I saw Willie Nelson and .38 Special., It was a awesome show. Today i am going to Austin With Baby Inka. A five minute decision. :)

All My Stuff

So this is my entire gear all laid out on my bed. I Figured that everything I needed should fit on a bed because this would be the most amount of space I would have at a hostel or wherever I was sleeping. Also it helps me limit how much I pack.
