california
Until my jobs start, I have a bit of free time, so Honza and I went up to Lake Tahoe on Friday to stay with my cousin Ilan at the Stanford family camp where he’s been working for the summer.

question to all
What should I do about blogging once I return from Bavaria? Should I create a new Tumblr, use a different blogging source like Wordpress, or keep using this blog?
