One of the best blogs and writers.
Every time I clicked to his site, I half expected it to be gone.
I guess I was right.

This is at least the second time he's done this. I don't see the point.

Y. forwarded a link to this thread.
I did delete the bloglet. After years of being annoyed with it.
Used to hang out with this girl, she'd draw the most amazing things. Stuff straight out of an acid trip, would really get to me somehow. And then she'd burn them. I didn't get that at all, at the time.
I've got an urge to write. Blog, stuffs. But then I really don't ever want to see it again. One sided, braggy, negative, always something. It's not like I'm just banging hot girls, traveling around, being super cool. I'd leave stuff up if I felt like it was real enough. Still too much insecurities, ego validation, stuffness in all of it.
Crashed my paraglider into a lake in Nepal, then did a ton of acid, decided was time to finally unload it. Start somewhere new.
I'm not trying to make money being some travel blogger, or be some kind of girl bits guru, or whatever. It's just like art or introspection or random doodling on a napkin.
Also, doing EE for the summer / fall. In Romania/Bulgaria/Serbia now. If any of you guys are out this way, let's catch up.

I changed my website a few times over the years. Every time I saw a huge drop in page views. I'm still recovering from the last change which was already summer 2012.
Not recommended.
Book - Around the World in 80 Girls - The Epic 3 Year Trip of a Backpacking Casanova
My new book Famles - Fables and Fairytales for Men is out now on Amazon.

This has also been one of my favorite blog for quite a while. I actually had an offline rip of the while site a few months ago but my old laptop died and I didn't back it up. I'm very glad his old writing's been preserved.
Reading his site felt like taking part in an adventure. You never knew what he was going to do or write about next. It had a sense of honestly and directness that was one of a kind and, unlike many game/manoshere blogs, made life seem endlessly fascinating and worth exploring, whether things end up happily or not.

Jake has a bunch of new posts up if you guys haven't checked lately.
Good quote:
"that imbalance, that happens when one of the pillars of your life isn’t being tended to. without some work, making money, something is missing. without physical exercise, you don’t feel right. without human connection, friends, sexual tension, the world isn’t quite right. without a little adventure, everything else is grey, no matter what."

I'm still in Bangkok. Probably be here for a while. I got a lot of friends here, though this polluted ass city is starting to get old.
Gotta work on getting pillar number 1 up to par so I'm mobile again.

Looked this up just now, to replace some of the still missing archives.
Quick show of hands, if you guys are commenting on the bloglet, what's your avatar-name stuffs? Looking to put more of the bits together, of who's who. Thanks! (especially for saving the bloglet from myself)

Jake,
I read your blog regularly and love it as written in an earlier post above. I usually sign my posts there with VP even tough I'm using a different nick there.

I've realized on some level I've been trying to recreate the wheel. I don't read other blogs much which is foolish because I know there's a lot of good content out there.
I started reading cedonulli's blog and while I like his ideas and his style of travel. It is painful to read his writing. PAINFUL.
He talks about himself in the 3rd person like he's a child half the time and the other half he seems to try and speak like Malcom Mcdowell in A Clockwork Orange by using the word "bits" to encompass everything.
Anyway, I'm headed to Cambodia tomorrow and the one thing I wanted to read was his retrospect piece on it but that particular link is down for some reason.
