So much so, that for the next ten days I will be out of the reach of technology, with nothing more than a camera (which I will soon review here), in beautiful Guyana (it’s above Brazil and next to Suriname).

60 Days Without Internet: Day 13

How would a nerd react to being cut off from his precious internet and email for two months? That’s what we set out to find out. It’s day 13 of my 60 days without email (and most internet) and I’m going to literally die of boredom. Just kidding. I’m doing fine with good ol’ snail mail and phone calls, and living life to the...
