The Question Every Solo Traveler Dreads “Are you dating anyone?” my well-meaning relatives always seem to ask, even though I’m sure they already know the answer. Often I want to say, “Yes! I’m dating Edinburgh right now. Or yes, I’m dating Wilmington right now.” Or, “Well I’m dating around at the moment–last week I saw […]
Circumnavigating the Globe. In a Car. In the 1960s. That’s how Albert Podell began his life-long journey to every country on Earth. He and fellow travel writer Harold Stephens found big-name sponsors to fund the trip that took them through nearly 30 countries in the span of about two years. Afterwards, they wrote a book […]
Museum of the Rockies: Bozeman, MT When I was a kid, my family and I took “yearly family vacation” ski trips out west. (Yep. A bunch of southerners on skis…I blame my parents’ Yankee friends).

He had just published his collection of short stories on Amazon, and was looking for people to check it out. About the Author Joshua Samuel Brown is the co-author of thirteen […]
It’s ironic, actually, that I left Montreal without looking back and that I leave Edinburgh feeling as if I’m ending a good relationship prematurely. Ironic because I’d moved to Montreal intending to stay forever and I’d come to Edinburgh intending non-permanence. Funny how that happens, no?
Ages ago, I started following Savannah Grace on Twitter (@sihpromatum). To promote her new book, Backpacks and Bra Straps, she was running a ¢99 deal on her first one (sorry you missed it). “A travelogue for 99 cents?” I thought, “I’m into that.” To be honest, though, I thought it was about a girl getting […]
It is sad that people are now afraid of journeys because they are afraid of the very people they should be trusting. The same applies to emotional journeys, which are inextricably woven into other people’s lives; every day we place or receive trust, every day we confide, we chat and we gossip. Often, one meeting […]
