the Road to Valhalla
poems, prose, musings, rants, lightly embellished tales of adventure, inspirations, hot springs and profound connections… On the road, in the air and over the seas… raw, unedited and in no particular order.
“Half the fun of travel is the esthetic of lostness.” — Ray Bradbury

adventures
🇺🇸 Salinas, CA - Steinbeck Country - 07.29.2026
“I was born lost and take no pleasure in being found.” - John Steinbeck (Travels with Charley-In Search of America)
The book itself, “Travels with Charley,” resonates with me on many levels… and Steinbeck’s words and ideas on “tumbling thoughts” as his creative processes are immensely inspirational and validating to my own methods of expressing myself artistically. Check it out… at your local library… they have all kinds of good shit there.
🇦🇷 Buenos Aires - Cementerio de la Recoleta & Getting from Point A to B - 03.24.23
So… the lovely bus women of Buenos Aires ushered me off the bus and in the right direction in an endearing way… like a baby bird… like a little lost California baby bird.
🇲🇽 Biblioteca de México - 05.02.2026
Biblioteca de México is a fantastic place to just be…
🇲🇽 La Lagunilla Baby!!! y Tepito - 04.26.2026
I’ve been told by many people not to go to Tepito alone… and to specifically go with a local. They will take your shoes. Well… I made it out alive… without being kidnapped… or mugged… and I still have my shoes…
🇲🇽 ☸️🕉️☯️ Stupa de la Paz - Valle de Bravo - 04.14.2026
Las palabras conquistan temporalmente, pero los hechos... esos si nos ganan. O nos pierden para siempre.
