We’re leaving Munich today, picking up one possibly two carpoolers. Our time in Munich has been… nah, just ‘been.’ No super high or low points, lots of bad weather…
We went to Dachau yesterday morning. It was the Nazi model for further concentration camp efforts, and the hub of their initial medical experimentations.
Dachau, the town, was an artistic…
At the moment, we’re in Munich doing work. Armando’s job is taking us on a fast-track tour of European capitals, and we’re also doing the background for our own…
Whenever I go to a place, I try to find out about it. Not just the main, boring generalizations- the things that capture my attention. Milan as a city…
Family comes in many forms, and in going to Milan I knew I wasn’t just meeting Armando’s mother and brother, his aunties and uncles, but also friends from his…
My little sister, Megan, is getting married September 14 of this year. It was my main priority to be able to make it there for her. The one thing…
To continue with how engaging and unusual Palermo is, we need to go into a little background on where we actually stayed. We found Palermo to be similar to…
There will be a lot of time-lapsing between now-now and the past week. Be patient. I promise Palermo is worth it.
Yesterday was a day of days, with an unbelievable…

Sicilians have a curious habit of apologizing for the weather. If it’s not painstakingly, sparkling blue with sunshine beating down, they feel responsible for it.
Sarah explained this to me,…
I’m sitting in a ‘nomad camp’ writing this. It’s basically Mork and two other vans. In Montana we’d call them Missoula hippies (5 people in 2 vans with 4…
As some of you know, we’re staying at a very honest-to-goodness ‘agrofarm.’ Typically in Italy, an agrofarm is simply a B & Bs that farms land and sells products…
We try to find out interesting facts from each country we visit. You might know some of these, but with a few I was able to even surprise some…
We’ve been all over Lecce-Salento-Otranto. I’d like to see a country singer try to make a song out of that. Grin. I think it’d be particularly compelling with a…
We became interested in solar power because we knew we’d need a sustainable power source for our gadgets, so that we could work from the road. But first we…
A wise auntie of mine once told me that what you send out in the world, energy-wise, you receive.
The only conclusion I can garner from that and our recent…
