The Simpler Way draws on the experiences and insights of many people who are exploring a ‘simpler life’ of reduced and restrained consumption. Topics for discussion include money, working hours, food, clothing, energy, transport, technology, housing, and reducing waste, among many others. The pathways to simple living will vary greatly from person to person, but whatever your situation and whatever your approach, people need to hear about your challenges and successes. March 26, 2014.

The Road Goes Ever On: November 2012
http://terryculver.blogspot.com/2012_11_01_archive.html
Friday, November 30, 2012. So you all do not live under the delusion that I am away living the high life - below is my hostel room in Kiev. Cosy' someone said to me. But - location.location.location - it overlooks Independence Square at the very heart of the city. It had a comfortable bed, a bedside lamp, a heater - what else do you need? All that for just $18 a night! Though I have to admit - it was the smallest hostel room I've ever stayed in! Why I don't wear a watch. No worries - it cost $6. The Russ...

The Road Goes Ever On: August 2012
http://terryculver.blogspot.com/2012_08_01_archive.html
Thursday, August 23, 2012. The happy hiker pt 1. Well the trek is over! It will surely remain the pinnacle of my travel experiences. As an avowed montophile (I think I made that word up.) I cannot imagine I will find anything to surpass it. . It was really dangerous. At various times we had to jump/cross crevasses, rapid flowing glacier streams, and sidle around crumbling dirt tracks along mountain paths barely 20cms wide with almost vertical drops of up to 150 metres. . We were not kitted with any for...

The Road Goes Ever On: liberace's bathroom
http://terryculver.blogspot.com/2014/10/liberaces-bathroom.html
Thursday, October 16, 2014. Crossed the (dry) river this morning to visit the Hamez Shrine. Inside was a cacophony of dazzling light and reflections - very difficult to capture on camera, millions of tiny mirror fragments carefully arranged on every surface. Despite the irreverent reference to Liberace in the headline, it was simply beautiful inside. If I thought the Hamez shrine was a knockout with mirrors, it pales in comparison to the Shah Cheragh. Utterly breathtaking just about sums it up. Stunning ...

The Road Goes Ever On: September 2012
http://terryculver.blogspot.com/2012_09_01_archive.html
Sunday, September 30, 2012. Don't be such a souk. Not a lot to say about Marrakech - didn't turn out to be quite as nice as I'd hoped. The parasites who feed off the tourists are particularly unpleasant and are barely able to disguise their blatant lies and dishonesty. Not being a fan of markets full stop - I'm now wondering why I went as Marrakech is basically just a huge market place full of exactly the same things you find in every other Moroccan market. Thursday, September 27, 2012. There are remnant...

The Road Goes Ever On: November 2011
http://terryculver.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
Thursday, November 17, 2011. And we've got just three days". June 1977 - December 1978. Recent conversations brought to mind a profoundly influential episode in my early years that originated from one of my earliest trips. So I upped and offed to the UK to try and get me some experiences. After a disastrous start as a trainee manager at the Metropole, a business hotel in Leeds, an altercation with a piano saw me quit the position for a brief spell of unemployment. So the very next day I was at their head...

The Road Goes Ever On: persa police
http://terryculver.blogspot.com/2014/10/persa-police.html
Friday, October 17, 2014. Today was Paul's birthday. Ever since he was 12 he has wanted to visit Persepolis in Iran. He finally got his wish. We hired a car and driver for the 70km drive to make the day easier. Our first stop was Naqsh-e Rustam about 12 kms away from Persepolis. This is the site of the rock cut tombs of Darius I (c. 522–486 BC), Xerxes I (c. 486–465 BC), Artaxerxes I (c. 465–424 BC), and Darius II (c. 423–404 BC). Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
