    Set on Flickr.

  • Hong Kong

    Been a while since I’ve been back and yes, I’ve been slacking to post it on my blog. 😉 But here goes… Set on Flickr.

  • Auf wiedersehen

    Boarding my flight to Hong Kong. And then Tibet. And stuff. Toedeloe.

  • Shell(s) for my Great Firewall Checker

    As my last shell has been disconnected in China (not because I was probing websites, but because the building the Guruplug was in got closed) I’m looking for shells. Linux or Unix.
