One of the DPRK travelers posted a short video on YouTube from our trip. It’s a edited version of two quite long videos. Added bonus: I’m in it and I look like I have no idea what I’m doing. Here you go:

So, after many, many hours of work I’ve finally browsed through all my DPRK photos and selected a few to post here. Enjoy. Continue reading "Pictures from North Korea." →

In between everything else I’ve been up to since I returned from Asia, I’m now finally finished sorting and organizing and done with the necessary enhancing of the photos I took in China and North Korea. Without further ado, here are the pictures from China: Continue reading "Pictures from China." →

I’m back home after my trip to China and the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, AKA DPRK or North Korea if you prefer that. I’ve been completely offline for nine or so days, but was able to post updates to my Twitter account with text messages. If you want to keep a closer eye on my adventures in the future, feel free to follow me. Maybe you’re in for a few surprises.
But back to my Asian adventures. You might be expecting a long and detailed post about the trip and what we did, but I’m not going to write one*.
Due to the way trips to North Korea are organized and how everything works there, I’m actually running the risk of telling you something I shouldn’t tell and that will in turn fall back on our guides, who are, at the end of the day, responsible for whatever we did when inside of the DPRK. Not that we did anything that should turn out to be a problem, but sometimes it’s better not to kiss and tell, in this case because I don’t really know what might turn out to be a problem – what might seem like an irrelevant little thing to me might be a very important detail to others.
There’s probably a reason why it took a month to get my DPRK visa and I would be very surprised if some DPRK official is not checking up on public sources like this web site to see what we are writing after the trip. Yes, the things I’ve seen and the things I’ve read have made me somewhat paranoid concerning this.
What I can do, however, is to give you some basic information and advice on travelling in the DPRK. As for pictures, I’ll post some later if I found any good ones in my collection. Continue reading "Asian Tour." →

Kim has been spotted again and tomorrow afternoon I’m leaving to see if he wants to sit down and have a chat about life, the universe and everything in between. I’ve put the things I think I need into my backpack and I’m ready for tomorrow’s long haul via central Europe. Internet connection and other means to communicate with the outside world is almost non-existent, but considering the number of updates here lately, I really don’t think you’ll notice.
So enjoy your Easter holiday, wherever you might spend it; in the mountains with new and old friends, at the beach with your significant other, at home with your family, by yourself – or whatever floats your holiday boat.
