Confessions of a Junkie

While I am back and allegedly “functioning” as per normal, doing all the day to day things (way, way too many things), this trip has massively stimulated the ancient appetites within me for long-term non-agenda traveling, mostly for the undeniably important serendipity achieved in such loose adventures, the consistent and worthy diversion, and certainly the therapeutic value. I thought I was done with the quit-the-job/hit-the-road routine but perhaps not. Maybe there’s an in-between. I know this: I’m a junkie for subjective, instantaneous, or metaphorical transcendence, personally insightful or simply poetic, the kind you can only find on an empty train at dawn in Italy, upon first seeing a sword swallower in Prague, waking up at 4am to the muezzin’s call to prayer in Tangier, or trying out kitesurfing in Cabarete.

Pictures will be posted soon. Among the day to day things was a computer crash, but no data loss. Also stay tuned because part-time MUS correspondent, part-time Bullfighter, and man without a home, Diego Caballero, has reportedly been to Cuba and may have some stories to tell.
