This is not my blog: Me at Machu Picchu

I'm a Scotsman living in Seattle, WA. I love food, drink, friends, soccer & trivia. I'll be attending medical school starting in August of 2008.

More photos to come later, but here's a teaser photo of me at Machu Picchu.

Thanks for the slideshow - SA is definitely next on my list, and it looks like despite the recommendations, our winter is a great time to be at Macchu Piccu.

I want to pick you brain about packing light. I am there Tuesday PM to Wednesday night - you around?; Thu Jan 19, 03:57:00 PM PST
Colin said...: Hi Cam,

I'm definitely in town. I play soccer on Tuesday & Wednesday evenings but that only takes up a couple of hours. I'd be happy to give whatever tips I can about packing light. First recommendation: capilene (or other quick drying synthetic) clothes - that way you can wash them at night and they're dry by morning. I got a pair of underwear from REI that are made of a similar material and found them very useful.

Almost my entire wardrobe for the trip was from REI actually... :); Thu Jan 19, 04:47:00 PM PST
camarooned said...: Noted. Going out at lunch today to find me a pair or two of them-there Capilene boxers. Maybe I will pick them up at REI on Wed. instead, along with:

Silk Bedsheet;
Poncho / Light Waterproof;
Money Belt Thingy;

Hope to catch you Wednesday.; Fri Jan 20, 10:50:00 AM PST
