Big Life, Small Life
Big Life From mid-January until last weekend I was on the road 53 days, something like 41,000 miles. Sitting next to someone on a plane or having lunch with a friend, inevitably I’ll hear, “So you travel a lot. That must be a lot of fun, right?”

Travel as a Political Act
Watch the first 6-7 minutes of this presentation from Rick Steves, I think it’ll challenge your perceptions of what it means… …to travel. The “why” we need to travel beyond our borders is super important. …to share what we know to be true. I’ve watched and loved Rick Steves show on PBS for years, I’d heard him…

Oh no. I’m becoming one of those people
Last year, I traveled about 25% of the days. This year, I have more individual trips but fewer miles and days away from home because of a strategic change in how I travel. (More quick trips, less stringing together 2-3 trips into a really long trip.) Between now and June 1st I have 10 trips…

Back From the Brink
I just turned on my computer for the first time in 7 days. It still feels a bit funky. My fingers are stretching to familiar places but typing feels totally odd. Yesterday, I woke up to cuddle a freezing Jackson back to sleep. Today, he woke up in his crib to a warm bowl of…

Relaxing in Rosarito
One of the commitments that I made for 2012 is to rest better. I know, that sounds silly. But with all the stress and craziness of 2011 I forgot to take more than a few sporadic days off. That’s not healthy or sustainable. With that in mind, and Kristen’s parents in town for the week, we…
