Caravelserai!

Yes, as part of my new seaborne web diary series, I'll be coming up with a new lameass compound pun every week. Stay tuned for more dubious segues from early Portuguese colonialism in Asia to my new obsessions with contemporary vids and books.

Comments, and suggestions for first tract off the rack welcome. And any I really shouldn't waste time on too.
