We've had a taste of what you wrote about; now give us a taste of what images you chose to capture.

I don't have the patience for it. And in fact, this one ends soon - the final post from it is next week - because I got tired of writing in it well before the trip actually ended. There was one day in Pakistan when I woke up and thought, "Well, I could do [whatever activity], but then I'd have to spend an hour writing about it." That's when I knew I had to stop. Unfortunately, the fact that I stopped means I have no journal writings about going to a wacky gun bazaar in Pakistan's Northwest Province, meeting with Afghan refugees (and not telling them I spoke Russian!), and going to India (Taj Mahal, Varanasi, etc.). Bummer. But I do have photos. I never have kept a journal, except when I’ve been traveling. I don’t have the patience for it.

I know you were writing these for your parents, but clearly you were also keeping the saw sharp. Do you still write a journal? When you travel? Do others? And if so, how much do you censor?
