Happy 4th!

Celebrating my independence and years of solo traveling.

Un Buen Desayuno

There is nothing more I love than people sharing their food with me. Victor and Irma prepared a simple, typical Mexican breakfast, deshebrada and tacos pescado, but their kindness and hospitality made this one of the most satisfying meals I've had.

poésie des départs

Journeys are the midwives of thought. Few places are more conducive to internal conversations than moving planes, ships or trains. There is an almost quaint correlation between what is before our eyes and the thoughts we are able to have in out heads: large thoughts at times requiring large views, and new thoughts, new places. Introspective reflections that might otherwise be liable to stall are helped along by the flow of the landscape.
