Blogin päivitystä!

Blogi on muuttunut Tansanian reissublogista "yleiseksi" matkailublogiksi, eli olen päivittelemässä tänne juttuja myös aiemmilta reissuiltani. Juttuja tulee sitä mukaan, kun jaksan kirjoitella (kopsailen siis juttuja ei-sähköisistä päiväkirjoista).

Myös sivuston osoite on muuttunut. Uusi osoite: http://msafiri-traveller.blogspot.com/
