]]> Comment on Who Wants To Buy Me This..? by Marc http://darcyjohnperkins.com/who-wants-to-buy-me-this-2/#comment-60 Marc Mon, 09 Jun 2008 18:49:17 +0000 http://darcyjohnperkins.com/?p=108#comment-60 oooohhhh....I'm salivating over this. Nice. And to think I bought my SONY D707 5-Megapixels for $1000 eight years ago (and my camera is not even optimized for video such as this). The only thing stopping me to buy this is the fact that I want to upgrade my camera for a Canon 40D. I can imagine myself with a fanny pack or backpack, carrying both of these. Or I could just surrender for both photo and video with the Sony HDRSR12. Keep us posted if you ever buy this; would like to see a gallery sample. oooohhhh….I’m salivating over this. Nice.

]]> Comment on More people search Google for “google” than for “porn” by Micah http://darcyjohnperkins.com/more-people-search-google-for-google-than-for-porn/#comment-49 Micah Fri, 23 May 2008 19:25:52 +0000 http://darcyjohnperkins.com/2008/02/27/more-people-search-google-for-google-than-for-porn/#comment-49 Maybe this includes any search containing the word google. google mail, google ads, google earth, google maps, google stock quote, google tips, etc. you get the idea. People looking for porn probably don't always use the word porn in their query.

]]> Comment on After My Trip: University In The UK by Geoff http://darcyjohnperkins.com/after-my-trip-university-in-the-uk/#comment-17 Geoff Fri, 25 Apr 2008 21:56:02 +0000 http://darcyjohnperkins.com/?p=97#comment-17 LCC is cool - and has a very good reputation. Just be aware that London is the most expensive city to live in in Europe, and lots of people find it a bit overwhelming. I'm not trying to put you off - I always wanted to go to uni in London, and did, and had an absolutely incredible time, and have lived here ever since. But it's also worth knowing that other big cities like Leeds & Manchester are also great places to study without being anywhere near as expensive. LCC is cool - and has a very good reputation.

Which mostly serves to confuse me even more about where to go!

I did 18 months around the world and I spent that and that was with some serious loses at a casino lol. There are many cheap ways to travel and homestays and cooking keep your costs down. I think you could do 1 year on 20,000 even with western countries. In asia? South America? 20,000 would last 2 years.. I think thats an overestimate.

Sticking to hostels, and supermarkets for food... including traport, mostly trains. Well, personally, on average i spend around 800euro a month when backpacking.

In the third world you could do that easy. Europe/Australia/North America? Probably not. You could, but it would be difficult. It totally depends on where you travel.
