We are planning to explore a few tourism towns, beginning with Zadar. In t

I have just presented this guest lecture to a group of Masters postgraduates on my development of Microsoft OneNote as a journaling template for travel writing projects.

I am very pleased to be able to share this talk as a narrated MS PowerPoint slide-show converted to mp4 for YouTube, here: You can click below on the  Link to view slides in Google Drive
