Exclamation Great Wall Blog

After some time of consideration I decided to buy my own Great Wall homepage. Unfortunately the Danish domain (.dk) was already being used so I had to settle for the Swedish domain greatwall.se, but in this globalised world that shouldn't matter.
The website will be used to post photos from my trips to the Great Wall realizing that it's very difficult to find pictures of those less known places. It takes a lot of work to choose from all the pictures and write captions for all of the, but I hope that the gallery will be ready by the end of April.
In the meantime the blog is up and running so please feel free to pay it a visit. The blog will be used to describe my trips and whatever news I might run into regarding the Great Wall.

The website will also include a list of Great Wall links, so if anyone have some cool Great Wall links I would be happy to receive them.

Default Great Wall blog

Way to go, Kim! You got a nice, simple domain name and your blog is off to a great start. I really like the photo you selected for your home page and the page header. I know you have many great photos and I am sure your blog will prove to be very interesting. Have fun!

Thanks, I hope to be able to post a lot of details about different parts of the Great Wall in the future.
My boss and our CEO just visited me in China this week and we agreed to extend my contract until the beginning of 2014. That seems like a long time, but that will give me a lot of opportunities to visit the Great Wall in the years to come
Also I should be able to join you on your East Hebei trek next year

Coming to think about it a trek from Shanhaiguan to Jiayuguan seems more and more appealing - but so far just a dream

Congratulations on your contract extension! I know you are happy to remain in China longer. Hey, does your company need any software engineers?

Very interesting comment you made about hiking all the way to Jiayuguan. We will have to talk about that further!

Thanks, I'm happy to be able to stay in China, and also to continue to stay in the Tangshan area close to the Great Wall
Sorry to disappoint but we don't have much need for software engineers

One should always have dreams and Shanhaiguan-Jiayugua seems more and more appealing But so far no concrete plans.

Thanks Bryan

I'm sure a lot more will be posted on the blog in the future.

Also thanks for your advise to make my blog more viable. I will look into that soon.
