me casa sue casa

is that how you spell it?
does anyone even read this anymore??
you know i write it for you, the least you could do is send me an email or something.
ive only really heard from my european friends of late, which is a tad dissapointing.
like, carl, come on, send me an email! you're my brother!
annnnyway.
currently staying at a place called Casa Robino in Amsterdam with Robino, Amylin, and Frenchie.
its a cool little appartment just outside of the city.
am doing the last leg of my journey with frenchie, so that will be good, having a friend again!!!!!!
it sucks when you're traveling by yourself, you make so many friendships that last a couple of hours, but beyond that, you may never see each other again.
but then again its good, you can be completely yourself because you dont have to worry about being stuck with people, or giving a shit what they think.
its nice in that respect, and i think i'll miss it when i get home.
ahhhhhhhhh home.
i miss home.
suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuun
beaches
warmth!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
so cold here.
the canals are freazing over.
i'm tired.
i tried to ride a bike today.
in amsterdam you can cast your eyes upon any public space without seeing a bike.
so i had a go.
i fell over.
twice.
without getting anywhere.
i forgot how to ride a bike.
for the 2nd time.
so ive proved the saying wrong.
if it were like riding a bike, i'd have bigger bruises.
anyway, thats really been the only thing worth mentioning of late.
oh and yesterday i met two americans, one who helped build a school in kenya, and another whos doing a bicycle tour around the world. that was pretty cool.
brugge day after tomorrow, i think.
hitching with frenchie. :-)
sent postcards today too.
if you gave me your address, maybe you'll get one ;)

see you all soooooooooon.
