Short & Sweet - The Truth About Travelling
http://akaclothing.wordpress.com
The blog is an account of the experiences my partner and I had whilst travelling around the world from September 2004 for approximately 6 months, as male and female. To be more precise, black male and a white female the ‘Dalmatian effect’ (travelling as a couple of mixed races) and how the world took to us. My alias is mcscars. At the time of travelling I was a law student, part time banking clerk, fashion designer (akaclothing), and unpublished, bored wanna-be writer, but I’ll tell you about me and those who surround me later.
