Day 68: Punjabi MC (AROUND THE WORLD IN 80 LOUSY TUNES)
Read post

I was now heading north on my comfy, soundproofed train, and increasingly getting worried about my route. The blissful silence and sound free rocking movement (now that’s what I call rocking) had lulled me to sleep, and when I woke up I realise[…]

Read post
