Megamails

If you are unfamiliar with what a Megamail is, count your blessings. Once you get on my e-mail list your life will be ruined for soon you will start to receive these dreaded viruses called Megamails. Basically, Sam and I like to travel. And then, I like to tell all my friends about how our trip went. I could do this more efficiently at dinner or over some cocktails, but I know most of us work boring office jobs and could use a little break from the tedium of TPS reports.

Thus, the Megamail was born and there is no stopping it now. So kick back, order a pizza, get a six pack on ice and enjoy what you can of these essays on world travel.

You will notice that this list hasn't been updated in the last view years. This is because I've gotten more in the habit of writing up Trip Advisor reviews. You can see my hundreds of contributions there.
