Re: Favourite Travellogue
I like a lot of reports but the main ones which stand out for me are BIG POPPA PROPA, cattales1960, pengaldinho, Cisco, DanFromUk and soapy's reports.
My all time favourite reports has to be from geekymonkey, I seriously love the way she describes the taste and smell of the herb and I really love the artistic way she has of taking photos.

I have to agree geeky takes awesome pics. Look for bleaks photos also. He is a professional photographer and takes awesome pics.Snow White wrote:I like a lot of reports but the main ones which stand out for me are BIG POPPA PROPA, cattales1960, pengaldinho, Cisco, DanFromUk and soapy's reports.

Re: Favourite Travellogue
Thanks everyone
It's so nice to know that people enjoy what I write!
Unsurprisingly, I really like to read to, so I've been putting off responding to this thread forever because I'm scared of leaving people out. I LOVE the reports and I've enjoyed so many people's. I will probably come back and add more people I've forgotten.
I love Bleak's photos. https://www.coffeeshopdirect.com/forum/viewt ... 10&t=15896 He is so talented! He also has an awesome tumblr that I enjoy: stonerphotos.tumblr.com
I always enjoy Cisco,

Re: Favourite Travellogue
I read an INSANE amount of these before preparing for my trip in November - they're really addictive. Its funny, the I-Got-High-In-Amsterdam travelogue seems to have developed into this strange art form of its own which could never have existed before the internet. There's something really nice about reading writing by normal people (not sure how many normal people are in this forum actually but you get my point
) who wouldn't usually write that much.
I hadn't realised there was a bookmark function in this site unfortunately until a few weeks ago, so it would take me a while to track down my favorites but I'll have a go when I have more time and will add to this post.
Really liked some of DanFromUK's ones
GeekyMonkey's travellogues are bloody amazing - go Geeky!
This one isn't about Amsterdam, its about India, but its really brilliant - reads like Papillon
https://www.coffeeshopdirect.com/forum/viewt ... 10&t=13456
Will add some more later...
To be honest, I enjoy all of them, really. The only thing which drives me mad is people who don't use paragraphs, or have absolutely enormous ones. It makes them incredibly difficult to read.
Thanks to all who write these - always nice to spend a few happy minutes reminiscing on my brief time in the Dam.

Only been a member here for a day or 2 but have worked my way through many trip reports for the past month or 2. My favorite is Twitchaldino's. He seems a cool guy and writes well. Really passionate about his bud. Really enjoyed the Seattle report.
Like a lot of others, also like Luvticks. I know she takes notes but there are so many details, I dont know how she manages.
Ciscos also good. Detailed with photos, a good read.

Re: Favourite Travellogue
i think "epsilon" deserves a mention (the guy with the white pony head as an avatar) - perfect balance between travel reporting and weed reporting, plus some good photos.
Trips to the 'dam: 27
