Trip Advisor
I just walked in the door from my two night work trip to South Africa. While I was there I was, of course, Twittering and a friend of mine @cubedweller'd me and said "dude, what's with all the traveling?!" I hadn't really thought about it but tallying it all up, I have been doing a ton of traveling since I moved to London.
Since I moved here, I've done:
- San Francisco to London - moving to the UK (5363 miles)
- London to Amsterdam - 20 hour trip to NextWeb conference and hang with the Diggnation guys (221 miles)
- Amsterdam to London - back to work (221 miles)
- London to Paris - personal trip with Deanne and Kristen (213 miles)
- Paris to London - eurostar trip back (213 miles)
- London to San Francisco - work trip to Web 2.0 expo (5363 miles)
- San Francisco to London - flight back from Web 2.0 (5363 miles)
- London to Budapest - personal trip with Deanne (902 miles)
- Budapest to London - flight back from BUD (902 miles)
- London to Paris - quick weekend trip with Andrew and Emily (213 miles)
- Paris to London - Eurostar back (213 miles)
- London to Johannesburg - 2 night work trip (5642 miles)
- Johannesburg to London - flight back (5642 miles)
30,291 miles so far and with trips to New York, Dublin and Krakow next month, I'll be well over 40,000 by the end of June. Didn't I use to not enjoy flying or something?
Suffice to say...I'm pretty tired.
