Australians! Give Ramon a bed for the night..'After almost 8 months of travelling through 13 countries, I took a break back home again in January 2002. Now it's time to hit the road again. I have put my mind on Australia.' I really enjoyed meeting Ramon last year, and it seems he is ready to hit the road again.. so take a chance, and invite him over. Or if you would rather read the weblog of a guy who has just been attacked by natives in Borneo, check out Marlow Bidforth's backpack adventure.

I already invited Ramon a while back, wish I had thought of this first.

Marlow Bidforth ... boy adventurer and comic book hero is a bit harder to believe.

Ramon can spend the night in my bed any time he wants, though I'm not in Australia.

The Australian Government will probably try to imprison him in order to gain more political support. Ramon, don't come buddy. Our government spies on it's own people and lies to them as well.

I'm pretty sure that "Bidforth" is not only fictional, but the work of a troll trying to drum up controversy. And arguably a scam as well, given the affiliate links involved.
