    Recovering Nomad – Welcoming Friends to My Town

    One of the unexpected benefits of living here is the number of friends who come through. One hundred million air passengers pass through New York City’s airports each year, and following the law of large numbers, I happen to know a few.

    Recovering Nomad – 9 Realities Nomads Appreciate When Stopping

    I’ve done my fair share of traveling over the years. Now that I’m in New York, backpack stowed away, I can reflect on some of the culture shocks as I settle into the reality of western society again.

    Recovering Nomad – The Role of Routine

    Anchored again to one location, Chelsea for now, I am starting to settle into the community and with it, develop a switch in mindset. Top of mind while traveling might have been scrambling to find a place to bunk down for the night, hunting down a restaurant that didn’t serve up a side dish of…

    Celebrating Earth Day

    Over the past five years, I’ve come to appreciate the beauty of nature and how it is sacred to cultures all around the world. Speaking with many people of many cultures, when asked “What brings you closer to god?” the overwhelming answer was nature and mother Earth.

    Recovering Nomad – The Art of Cleanliness

    After so much time traveling, I was ready for a home, and for a variety of reasons, New York called my name. I have many good and not as good friends here, and for the first time in forever I feel at home. I knew New York from visits over the years, but wanted to…
