There is a scene in the fabulous collection of shorts, Paris Je T’Aime, with a very stereotypical overweight American tourist clad in fanny pack, sneakers and her Lonely Planet Paris guide.

When traveling, you learn you must be fluid and cope with the unexpected.

Note: Written 6 July 2011 By the time I will have posted this, I will be in Serbia. After a mad dash on a rolled ankle, a little line cutting and a broken combination of English and French, I boarded a flight to Belgrade this morning. My final destination today is Novi Sad, about an [...]

I keep having nightmares. Once in Barcelona and every night since I’ve been in London. They are always different and always drawing from aspects of real life conversations, people and events in my life. Is this what happens when you finally free your mind of the stress? Is this some sort of mental cleansing that [...]
