In The Meantime …

I am going to (try to) start interspersing shorter, more off-the-cuff posts with the big missives I’ve been writing lately. I want to update this space more frequently than I have been – partly to keep a better record of my travels for future reference, partly to reassure folks at home that all is well. ;)

Currently I’m Bolzano, Italy after visiting with my friend Marcello for a few days. We haven’t strayed far from the city center – but that’s okay, because it’s quite lovely. The night I arrived I was swept off to two parties: The first was at the Museo d’Arte Moderna e Contemporanea (Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art) for Franz Magazine, a local (mostly-online) arts and culture magazine. The second was about 30km south of Bolzano, at the home of Italian winemaker Alois Lageder. Both were fun, filled with good-looking people and good music (and great food and wine at the latter). Yesterday was mostly mellow wandering around the city, sitting at a cafe and people-watching, casual conversation. Which was perfect after a glass or two too many of the fine vino the night before …

Today, I’m off again, striking into the heart of the Alps. I expect to make it at least to Davos, Switzerland.

Soon I’ll have a post about the last few weeks, spent in Budapest, Prague and Vienna. Promise!
