ABOUT ME

"Truthfully, I'm not the best traveler in the world. I know this because I've traveled a lot and I've met people who are great at it. Real naturals. I don't have this quality. I'm bad at researching a place before I travel, tending just to show up and see what happens. My shaky sense of direction means that during my life I have traveled with the vaguest idea of where I am at any given time. Aside from my cockeyed internal compass, I also have a shortage of personal coolness, which can be a liability when you travel. I have never learned how to arrange my face into that blank expression of competent invisibility that is so useful when traveling in dangerous foreign places. When I don't know what I am doing, I look like I don't know what i am doing. Still, despite all this, traveling is the great true love of my life."

PHILOSOPHY

"Don't worry about failure, worry about the chances you meet when you don't even try"
