Deutschland
Just a quick comment – it’s odd to feel such a patriotism with a country that I’m not a citizen of, nor spent more than a week in (not counting the 2 years I spent as an infant/pre-cognizance). Anyone else … Continue reading
“Tweet Less, Kiss More”
I’m inspired by this NYT OpEd piece. Lately, I’ve had a feeling of inner unrest. I want to do something disconnected. Something with adrenaline, something without technology. Something. I think I might try to work as a barista for a … Continue reading
