In which I walk around this very nice city, eating very nice things.
Travel: Folegandros
Condé Nast Traveler
Far from the glitz of Santorini, the humblest unspoiled island in the Cyclades makes it onto the cover of the magazine. A slow, perfect week in an ideal place.

Caviar, vodka, heat wave, social upheaval, Nabokov’s home, bear meat, etc.
Travel: Two walks across Tasmania.
National Geographic Adventure 2.06
Six days on the Overland Track at Cradle Mountain; four days along the beaches of the Bay of Fires. An eco lodge; some good Tasmanian pinot noir; square wombat crap and a spiky echidna anteater; a game of cricket on the beach in which my bowling style is derided and I am called a “chucka.”
Travel: Hiking, river rafting, zip-cording through Guatemala
National Geographic Adventure
Wandering ancient ruins in Yaxha; avoiding the deadly Chicken Bus & dodging flying molten
lava rocks on a (very) live volcano.
Travel: The Bahamas
Condé Nast Traveler
Old money in Harbour Island. New Four Seasons on Exuma. Nettie Symonnette’s Guinness stout diet. Bone fishing in the Abacos. A lot of conch.
The Bahamas: A suprisingly non-sucking eleven island tour.

I don’t really approve of the word “foodie” in the title. But I do approve of being paid to race across France with my pal D. Leary using the Tour as our rough guide and Waverly Root’s The Food of France as inspiration. Including: lunch at Michel Bras; an attempt to bike up the Alpe d’Huez; squab cooked in a pig’s bladder; with meals and bathroom breaks in Perigord, Auvergne, Languedoc, Provence, Savoie, Burgundy & Paris.

A story about San Diego. Like describing a nap. Sometimes you gotta go where they send you.
