The Night I Snuck Into the Notre Dame de la Garde, Part 3
The streets of Marseille are as quiet as any after midnight. The air was thin and cool. The streets that led to the cathedral were lined with Renault cars and Vespa scooters and a surprising amount of Harley Davidson motorcycles, all crammed onto the sidewalks or wherever their owners could park them. Anouk led the way […]
The Night I Snuck Into the Notre Dame de la Garde, Part 2
The Vertigo was surprisingly empty that early at night. Save for the front desk attendant we seemed to be the only ones there.

I landed in Barcelona after surviving three delays and four separate flights over the course of just one day. I had been drifting in and out of consciousness since we departed Newark, staring mindlessly at the little TV that was attached to my seat and wondering just exactly what it was that the flight attendant […]
Three Weeks in Europe.
For the last few months I have divided my time between Florida, Seattle, Spain, France, Monaco, Italy, Switzerland, Germany, and The Netherlands. The urge to travel is something that I have felt woven into my soul for years, but unfortunately something that I haven’t had much of a chance to do until recently. But as […]
