Days 13-15: San Francisco

I very much have enjoyed San Francisco, though for entirely different reasons. San Francisco was an awesome place to visit, with a lot of modern downtown stuff, corporate feeling areas, touristy stuff and still independent mom & pop places. Portland, on the other hand, is what Brooklyn wishes it could be if there weren't Manhattan corporate influences coming in. There's not a lot of touristy stuff, but it seems like a fantastic place to be.

Days 7-12: Mostly Los Angeles. Mostly.

I've been feeling lazy and didn't feel like writing despite the fact that LA was basically a trip to the Jersey Shore where you don't do anything but read all day. But somehow I survived.

The Definitive Timeline of Australians Getting Thrown Out at 3am

After going to Rainey Street with pretty much the only remaining parts of my Austin hostel crew last night and talking to them about the big hostel scandal of the three Australian girls getting thrown out on the street at 3am and escorted out by police, I think I can now piece together a definitive timeline of everything that happened.

Traveling Across the US: Days 4, 5 & 6: Austin

Austin, Texas is a very hot place. It takes maximum effort to walk about a quarter of a mile and not drop dead dying. I probably wouldn't feel safe going a mile without Gatorade or water or something like that.

Traveling Across the US: Day 3: Chicago/Austin

Do you want to know how much of a genius I am? I scheduled a flight for 7am to save about $20 even though I wouldn't be able to check into my next hostel until 3pm. That 7am plane arrived in Austin from Chicago at 9am. So this was really a Hall of Fame terrible idea.

Traveling Across the US: Day 2: Chicago

The lesson of day number 2 of my excursion is that weather men are liars and shouldn't ever be listened to. I was going to go to the Cubs game at Wrigley Field that started at 1:20 yesterday, but it was supposed to thunderstorm for at least a good portion of the game. Not perfect baseball weather!

Traveling Across the US: Day 1: Chicago

So for the next 3 weeks, the purpose of this blog is gonna change to my travel journal through my three week trek via bus and plane from Columbus to Seattle via Chicago, Austin, LA, San Francisco and Portland. That's lotsa places for me to explore either for fun or to see if I want to apply for jobs in after I get my MBA.

 Look in my eyesssss, what do ya see?
