The Maori had simple games such as this one. Two people would stand facing each other with two sticks, tap them on the ground and then throw to each other. Dave and I were well good at it.

About
In September '04, I started my year out which has seen me visit numerous countries and take in new experiences. Here's a peek into what I've seen and done, hopefully serving as inspiration for friends to get over that 'travelling inertia' and do it themselves! There's a 'comments' link below all posts, please click on them and leave us one! The 'Archives' section (below) is where you can see what I'd been doing for that month. Enjoy, and keep in touch; let me know you've stopped by.
About Me
- Name: Botess
- Location: Chester, Cheshire, United Kingdom
Hailing partly from the Middle East and the UK, I spent most of my first years in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. I left the Kingdom at fifteen with fond memories of the Jeddah Prep. and Continential, and contacts with dozens of close international friendships forged over the years. I spent 1999-2001 at High School in Cheshire before moving on to the University of Sheffield to study Artifical Intelligence. Travelling was then the order of the day, and I toured through South-East Asia, Australisia, South & Central America. Highlights included the Nevis bungy jump in New Zealand and diving for two months in the Carribean off the lazy and beatiful island of Utila. I did a Management MSc at Bath and I'm now working for IBM in London.. always wanted to live in the Big Smoke!
