Tweet 2/27/09 First of all, let me say thank you for all the congratulations, warm wishes, warnings, and announcements that I am out of my mind. Of course I’m out of my mind. What kind of a person gives up his stock options to move into a VW bus and discover what it’s like to [...]
Tweet Of course I’m out of my mind. What kind of a person gives up his stock options to move into a VW bus and discover what it’s like to be homeless in the middle of a Northwest Winter? What kind of anarchist joins the Marine Corps? What kind of person moves to Hawaii with [...]
Tweet 2/20/09 This morning after a sleep beset by a wailing baby and a blaring television, I set off to find a good hostel. I had found one that looked fantastic, the Equity Point Hostel (aka Riad Amazigh) I arranged to check in at 11 and returned to the Hotel al Jazeera to get my [...]
Tweet I know this may seem odd, but I am on the road again. Don’t worry though, I haven’t abandoned new found love. Instead, this is a practicality. Admittedly, I have wanderlust and Hanane understands this, so while she arranges her passport and completes some English teacher trainings, I am hitting the road. Today I [...]
Tweet 2/19/09 The train ride from Casa Blanca to here was stunning.155 dirham: Orange fields of what I think were poppies, yellow fields of something else, purple fields of something else, green, hills, red rocks, and lots of beauty.

Tweet 2/18/09 I’m in Casablanca attempting to upload some pictures. I found the hostel here without too much problem and like Rabat, people here are much less in your face. Fes, while beautiful and interesting, was a terrible place to begin in Morocco. The touts and thieves and ever present people who want to sucker [...]
Tweet 2/17/09 It’s a grey day in Rabat. That’s okay. I slept like a log last night and this morning met a guy that is bicycling from Geneva to Central Africa. Wow. He encouraged me to go to Senegal but the time is not yet. I walked to the Casbah, explored the Tower of Hassan, [...]
Tweet 2/16/09 I know this may seem odd, but I am on the road again. Don’t worry though, I haven’t abandoned new found love. Instead, this is a practicality. Admittedly, I have wanderlust and Hanane understands this, so while she arranges her passport and completes some English teacher trainings, I am hitting the road. Today [...]
Tweet 2/14/09 I make rules for myself with the best of intentions and then I usually have to break them. One example of this is about to be demonstrated.
