Welcome to Don’t Stop Living!! My new weblog – 27th July 2007

Welcome to my blog. That’s short for weblog. I’m Jonny Scott Blair. I’m new to the internet but I’m not new to the world. I’ve lived on this planet for 27 years now and am constantly in search of wisdom, culture and perpetual laughter. Every person I meet, I embrace and warm to and get to know them. I am here to meet people and share stories, memories, experiences and passion with. I will aim to experience new people and culture and share these with every person I know and meet. It’s not a bad world. Let’s see what we can give it. Let’s see what we can get from it. Don’t stop living. That is my motto and I live by it. Jump in and join my journeys around the globe. I’m a travelling Northern Irishman! Don’t Stop Living! Incidentally, as I write this from Toronto in Canda, the phrase “Don’t Stop Living” was one I stole from Toronto in 2001. It was etched as grafitti on a High School Wall and I have taken inspiration from it ever since.

I will start this blog by putting in all the places from my 2007 world tour and my experiences there. I will also add in some other places and cultures I’ve seen plus people I’ve met, and it will develop from there. It was backpacking in Toronto this summer that provided me with the inspiration to start this travel blog. I met Lee and Mike who had travel blogs. Then in New York I met Cassiano and in Taupo I met Stacie, both also travel bloggers. So it was time for me to start one…

The country I grew up in was NORTHERN IRELAND, one of the smaller parts of the UK and my time there seeing beautiful people smile through times of trouble gave me inspiration for life and adventure.
 
I will create a section which includes every football stadium I’ve been to as well as every country and city I lay my hat. I’ll also try to write about every beer I’ve tried and every bar, pub, club or restaurant I’ve been in. This is the culture I embrace. I’m a football fan who likes a drink and likes people!
