Default hello all you tpunks!

I am new to the board.
I am 23, I "live" in las vegas and a photographer.

In april myself and a friend of mine are flying into japan backpacking around there for a minute, crossing into china (somehow), catching the train from bejing to moscow and then backpacking across europe as far west as we can get. it sounds like a bit of a trip and I am kind of nervous about it.
at any rate, I hope you all had a great new years eve and got the year kick started out the correct way.
