Roberto Live!

And the pictures of Houston are now online. Texas was quite an adventure, and the bus from Dallas to Houston was less intimidating than expected

If you haven’t checked out my flicker, I have pictures of Dallas.  I’ll post later the pictures of Houston.

Alright, I’m on the Northern (read “normal”) hemisphere again. After Australia I went to the US. First to Dallas where I met Kim after a couple of years, and that was awesome, even when it was quite cold. Then I went to Houston which is a cool city but probably the most exciting things over there are the shops and the Space Centre. I’ll put pictures (and videos) of NASA later, it was absolute awesome. I think I liked Dallas a bit more anyway.

Now I’m in Mexico, for the following 30 days. The plan at the moment is to get a job in Singapore in these 4 weeks. I might move to the UK in mid-2010 and then maybe trying Denmark. Ultimately, I want to come back to Australia in a not too distant future.

There you go, your loyalty to this blog pays back, today was a double-post day.

Yesterday I came back from Queensland. I visited Brisbane, Sunshine Coast, Gold Coast and even I managed to visit the Glasshouse mountains and Moreton Island. Later stories and pictures.

Well I’m back in Sydney, it was a very long trip. The longest trip that I’ve ever done, I went around the world in just 33 days (beat that Phileas Fogg!).  Seven airports, eight flights and lot of low-quality food, but I made my way to Mexico. It was good to be with family and friends again, and I spent such a good time in Villahermosa.

Unfortunately my luggage was delayed in LA, which wouldn’t be that bad until I discovered there were missing items in my luggage! Bloody Qantas or Mexicana (it was a codeshare flight Mexico City - LA) or the US Transportation Security Administration. Whoever it was, they took some things from my luggage, since one of the items was a gift from my mom I already complained with Qantas and I’ll call them tomorrow.  LA airport was so chaotic that I’m almost sure the items were stolen there. Well it’s LA after all, what can I expect.

In case you haven’t seen my flickr photostream, all the pictures from the trip to The Netherlands is in there! The country was quite awesome, and even when I was on the streets of Amsterdam and The Hague most of the time, zero degrees wasn’t that bad. Oh yes, and contrary to any common sense, Nelly was quite a good host. She didn’t attempt to kill me in my sleep, wohoo!

Well I’m finally in Villahermosa! Nice weather so far

I’m in Singapore in my stopover from Sydney to London. My destination is Amsterdam, and one week after that Mexico!

I’ll keep you posted.
