what i'm reading...

I just started reading a new book, Getting Stoned with Savages: A Trip through the Islands of Figi and Vanuatu, by J. Maarten Troost. He is said to be one of the greatest travel writers of this time, and I can definitely say it makes me daydream of sitting on a remote island sipping drinks out of coconuts while lying on the beach!

"A delightful, self-deprecating, extremely sly account of life in a place so wretched it gives new, terrible meaning to getting away from it all." -National Geographic Adventure
