Okay, so! Been a couple weeks without an update on our site because I've been working on a new idea. It's not ready to post yet -- probably won't be for a month or more -- because I'd like to get some feedback on it first.

I thought this might be a place to find people willing to give us some constructive criticism on a new, travel-related media project. If you have a spare hour-and-a-half or so and don't mind answering 3 questions afterwards, I could really use your help.

Message me (via email or on Facebook or even just by commenting on this status update) and I'll get back to you with a secret link and some instructions.

Thanks!

Photo and a story time: A cheetah we saw in the Kruger National Park: http://postcardvalet.com/2012/05/10/cheetah/

We spent four days on safari, driving through the Kruger National Park in South Africa. Our guides drove us around for hours each day as Oksana and I hung out our respective windows, searching the countryside for the next amazing animal.

Part 3 (the final part) of that Lost in Botswana story I was writing...
http://postcardvalet.com/2012/05/09/lost-in-botswana-part-3/

It occurred to me at the time – I actually had the thought – that the situation we were in reminded me of one of those crazy African travel blog entries I’d read online. Dropped off in the middle of nowhere, not really knowing where we were, where we were going, or how we were going to get there. ...

New blog post:

I wanted to write a story about what it was like to ride a bus cross-country in Africa. I have two such stories that took place in Botswana, each interesting for different reasons. This is the first. If some of it sounds familiar, it’s because I wrote briefly about this ride in my Thoughts on Bots...

A reminder that we're inviting people to travel with us this November in Australia. Never having met us isn't necessarily a deal breaker. If you're even a little bit interested, let me know soon.

As I mentioned previously, Oksana and I have decided to spend a year living and working in Australia. However, we’re trying very hard to replenish some of the savings we burned through traveling around the world, so playing the tourist isn’t something we’re planning to do while we’re in Brisbane. ...
