Arthur’s Seat

Someday, I’ll climb it.

5000 Miles


Barcelona

Parc Güell

Originally uploaded by Mor (bcnbits).

I don’t remember much of it since I was there about 15 years ago and yet I’m sure that’s where I want to go the week of my birthday. I just resent how hard it is to find a travel partner. There are worse things in the world than giving [...]

March in London

In March, I want to go back to London. It’s been over four years since I was in the UK last. For a while, I was going practically every year. What’s happened since is I’ve rediscovered Italy, the British pound costs too much, and I wanted to “broaden my horizons”. I can’t stay away for [...]

Adjusting to Real Life

This is what makes it so hard. It’s raining tonight. What a change from blinding sun and sea breezes.

PED

It stands for Post European Depression. I’m trying to keep it at bay but circumstances aren’t helping. It’s cold, rainy, and I’ve been expeditiously attacked by a cold bug. I’m coming from golden sun, light breezes, and that blue, blue sea. The bad weather keeps me inside, though, and I’ve managed to process and compress [...]

Labor Day

It’s almost 10AM and I’m still in the hotel, trying to decide what to do about breakfast. I could go down the hotel restaurant with the stuffy clientele or get room service for $$$ and I could see them tacking on an extra charge for a pickup fee since I’ll be checking out today. Lastly, [...]

The Nation’s Capital

Ernesto freaked me out, especially with all the coverage. In my years living on the East Coast, I’ve learned that whenever the media overhypes some climate event, people overreact, inconveniencing everyone with interruptions and cancellations. I’d worried myself sick but Amtrak kept running trains, at least as far as DC. I got on after work [...]
