Having a blast in Thailand so far! Just a quick note for anyone checking for updates: I have lots of pictures uploaded and a few stories but I'm working on getting the website upgraded before posting. In the meantime, there is lots of construction going on so some links may be broken and pages missing since most of the changes I'm making are functional. Apprearance of the site won't change until the last step but I'm getting very close to launching the Chronicles 2.0!

Happy New Year to all! Wow, where does the time go?? The last 6 months flew by so fast, I can't believe it. Looks like my prophecy from July was right on the money. In 10 days, we're heading to Asia for a 2 month romp through Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam and Laos. Should be a great time. I had a lot of fun in Boston the last 6 months, but I'm ready to leave the snow behind. I'll make no proclamations about getting this website up to date...still have lots of stuff from our last trip to post. I've been redesigning the site the past month so hopefully before we leave I'll be rolling out The Cooper Chronicles 2.0. Lots to do between now and then so don't count on it. At the very least, there will be new journals sent and posted for our Asia trip.

Yes, I know it's been far too long with no update. Things have been a bit of whirlwind the past few months. The economy out in Cali claimed another victim...after looking for 4 months and not being able to find anything, I decided to come back to Boston for awhile. Luckily, I was able to go back to my old company and things are going good. I'll be on the east coast until the end of the year and then I'm heading west again...although I may be heading back the long way by going to Asia first:) Laptop trouble is limiting my abilitly to post the photos from the last part of our trip but I'm working on it and will try to update again soon.

Greetings from sunny, Southern California. Just a quick update on things...I've been here for a few weeks now and it has been going good. I've been focusing all my energy on my job hunt and have a few things in the mix. I'll have a little more free time during the coming week so I'll try to get back to working on the website. For now, I posted a few more pictures from Ecuador. Here are some from a beautiful hike to Fuya Fuya, a few from white water rafting, and some good party pictures from Banos Ecuador.

We finally made it to Peru!! We're at a beach town in Mancora and thanks to some fast internet I was able to make a HUGE update today. I've posted some new journals as well as tons of pictures. All pics from Colombia are now posted. There are some great pictures of the beautiful city of Cartagena, and some cool videos of us in the Mud Volcano near there. There are also some great artistic shots from the Salt Cathedral in Bogota, and we loved a little mountain town called Villa de Leyva. We ended up doing the Zona Cafetera with my friend Angelica from Bogota and got some great photos from Salento and Valle de Cocora. Last but not least, here’s some pictures and videos of me and Drouyn/Australia getting tattoos in Popayan!

Happy Thanksgiving to all! The poor internet speeds in Ecuador have crippled my ability to upload anything. The first place we find with a decent connection I will be making a big update with photos and posting a few journals. I hope everyone enjoys a great Turkey Day.

We are in Ecuador now and doing great. Jodi's Mom was visiting us last week which went great. I finally posted the journal from our sailing trip. I'm getting caught up with pictures and journals so check back regularly over the next couple weeks.

Still loving life here in Colombia. I haven't had time to write as much as I'd like but I am posting pictures and videos still. All the pictures/videos from our sailing trip from Panama to Colombia are now posted as well as hundreds of pictures from our six day trek to the Lost City.

Wow...it was a September to remember! We have spent a lot of time off the grid and I'm getting even more behind than usual. We are in Bogota now and I am upoading like crazy. I posted the rest of our Nicaragua pictures and the pictures from Starfish beach and Bocas del Toro. Everything from El Valle and Panama City is now posted as well. In the next couple days I'll be posting all the pictures/videos and journal from our sailing trip from Panama to Colombia.
