Travel Photography
Lima, Nazca, Cuzco, and Puno, PerĄ§2 A trip through the South American nation
of Peru, following the gringo trail
and seeing all the standard tourist sites,
including Machu Picchu, the Nazca lines, and
Lake Titicaca.
Beijing, China Photos of my time in Beijing in 2006 - the bookends
of my time in China. It has become one of my favourite
cities, and I feel that three weeks there wasn't enough
to see much.
Shanghai and Suzhou, China Two cities very close to one another, but very
different: Shanghai is commercial and mostly a
bore (the only saving grace was that I was there
for Chinese New Year), and Suzhou, which is quite
scenic.
Luoyang and Xi'an, China There is a lot of history in both of these cities,
which were both capitals of imperial China. Luoyang
has a great deal of fantasic Buddhist sites, while
Xi'an has a great deal of imperial sites, though
it also contains a variety of religious sites.
United Kingdom In the summer of 2006 I took a week long trip
with my father to visit my sister living in
Edinburgh. Though the trip was brief, we managed
to see a lot, with time in England, Wales and
Scotland.
Rome and Pisa, Italy Rome is certainly a highlight of Italy, where
the Vatican offers a lot of art and architecture
to take in. I had not planned on going to Pisa,
but a transit strike in France forced me to stay
in Italy, and Pisa was a good diversion.
Writing
Mythology Articles I wrote eight articles about mythology for
Suite101, before they restructured the entire system
and re-assigned the topics. The eight between March
2005 (Mythology and Relevance) and October
2005 (Vampires) are mine.
Music
Sept. 2008 song This is a song I recorded before September
2008 but I thought I'd try mixing it down and
putting it up.
Scene from Swan Lake My interpretation of Tchaikovsky's Scene
from Swan Lake
. A bit sloppy but it was just
for fun.
Other
Capitalize Card Game A card game I came up with in the summer of 2006.
I tried to get it licensed, but unfortunately card
games aren't what the industry needs. Since I can't
make any money with it I hope anyone who is interested
prints out the cards and tries it.
