Greece: a brief political observation

HACKED
Posted on July 9, 2011 | No CommentsThis blog was just hacked. And because www.sailingondine.com is attached to my twitter, LinkedIn & Facebook accounts, I’ve probably just recommended some loans to you. Several dozen times.

The Azores
Posted on June 21, 2011 | 1 CommentThe Azores were COMPLETELY different than I imagined them. First of all they were cold! The water temperature just broke the sixties.
