It has been a Very Long Time since I last wrote here. But well, today’s kind of a big deal. You see, two years ago today I left Seattle, embarking on my plan to ride my motorcycle to Bangkok.<\/p>\n
But a funny thing happened on the way: I fell in love with Europe and decided to stick around for a while. I’ve been in Barcelona now for almost 14 months, still loving it. I don’t really see any reason to leave any time soon, though (much like when I left Seattle) I’m open to possibility.<\/p>\n
It has been an interesting time. The work I’ve been expecting hasn’t come through (long story, that), though I now have several interesting opportunities on the horizon. In the meantime, I’ve visited friends around Europe, made amazing connections, learned some Spanish, gotten involved with the local burner & nooner (attendees of Nowhere<\/a>) community, and generally had a wonderful time.<\/p>\n Looking forward to seeing what’s next!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" It has been a Very Long Time since I last wrote here.
