The Flying Pig
Hostel in Amsterdam, Holland (The Netherlands) was just as mad as Vegas, except all
the casinos were replaced with the red light district & the free
flowing pot scene replaced all the wild drinking at The
LVBP! The FREE video e-mail machine was
simply brilliant & I met loads of travellers including Paul Grzadka
of Australia, who helped me produce The
Heineken Experience PHOTOstory. |

|
Swantje Roettgers of Germany had this 2
say about The Flying Pig: "Because
of the “recommendation” on your web page my sister &
I also stayed at the Flying Pig. Well, let’s say it's a very
interesting place! I
swear, I didn’t smoke once but was kind of 24hr. stoned with this
Amsterdam smock, bet you had the same experience."

This Greek
photographer burnt a lasting impression with me. I
sat at this Internet cafe in Scotland, writing e-mails 2 various
photographers in Greece, announcing my week long stay in their
country. I asked them a lot of questions about themselves, photography
& photo exhibitions in Greece. I invited them 2 visit me @
the youth hostel & on my 2nd day in Athens, Associated
Press Photographer: Thanassis Stavrakis walked in the door. Thanassis took me out 4
lunch & provided me with FREE internet access at his
office. Thanassis also gave me a signed copy of one of his PHOTObooks,
while introducing me 2 the rest of the AP
photographers @ his job. Then, he tossed me on the back of his
motorbike & together, we zoomed off 2 a party in honor of 22 local Greek
artists... Brilliant, mate! Simply
Brilliant!

| Now, this is
something different... I can't remember how I found this web
site, but 2 Polish photographer's (Tomek Sikora & Andrzej
Swietlik) came up with this temporary photo/art gallery idea. They
hunt down a location, get permission from the owner & for 3
to 5 days, it's an exhibition hall with
more than 100 photographers/artists exhibiting their work - they
even have reception parties, which are my personal favorites. |
 |
I really
respect these type of photographers & artists. It will be a real
pleasure 2 join them, when The PHOTOhype Project moves 2
Krakow! |

Do you
believe me now? I told you that Alaska's girl 2 guy
ratio is really messed up & I think this magazine proves
it! So, all you ladies out there, if you want 2 find a
place that has an abundance of real men, go 2 Alaska!
I'm from Alaska & I think I'm a good guy (hint, hint). |

Alaska
women
joke that "The odds are good, but, the good are
odd". Alaska men joke that "In Alaska, you
never lose your girl, you just lose your turn". -
oops! Did I say that? |

This is an interesting web community 4 all you Art &
Photography freaks out there. I was referred 2 this site by 2 of my
Belgian PHOTOfriends
(TankGirl
& MelvinKobe)
who are both members of this new age cyber space support group.
TankGirl
(Cindy Frey) is this sexy Hard Core Punk Rock photographer & MelvinKobe (Carlos M-C) has
an alias life over at my favorite bar: Café
La Fête.

It's web site
communities like DeviantArt that a lot of you kids of the Internet generation
take 4 granted. I remember all these lonely letters
I used 2 receive from friends stuck in small hole-in-the-wall
towns. Everybody wanted out or at least a few friends that
could appreciate their creativity. The Internet is such an
amazing platform of ideas. It can free the human mind &
transport us 2 far away lands, that in reality, are only a few
blocks away.
