Maxwell's Lost Again

learned lessons, unfollowed directions

  • Intermittent interims

    The daydream planning of a possible trip is in many ways more fun than any trip’s reality. It is an exercise in possibility, the way you hope travel can be, but daydreams are infinite and our actions are, sadly and presently, singular. I like to scour websites like workaway and think about what might happen Continue reading

  • Observations on a Train

    We will have to jump to this point in the story of my life, and I hope it can be a prelude to a coming piece.  I had spent too much time in Paris. I arrived, met a friend and another, left quickly to celebrate Queen’s Day in Amsterdam, then returned to bid my friends Continue reading

  • Loved and Lost (fiction)

    I coughed. It’s hard to think when coughing. The only thing worse than the coughing fits was when the fat nurse would come in and close my blinds, then I couldn’t not think.

    Wow do I miss Colombia. And wow did I ignore this blog while I was gone. In my defense…something about not having a computer. I actually wrote some rough draft posts on my phone but I managed to leave that in a cab the morning I left. An awful feeling to walk into the airport Continue reading

  • Costa Rica-Colombia

    Costa Rica has been in many ways fun and interesting, but upon finding out that my mother would like me home for Thanksgiving (I initally planned to be gone through December) I’ve decided that I don’t have the time to see the whole country. My interest really lies down on the South American continent. I’ve Continue reading

  • Beginnings

    Well I wrote this first post last night (while distracted and tipsy) but got annoyed with some structural and grammatical errors and ended up deleting it when I couldn’t figure out how to edit it. More problems with the site and my posting ability-I wanted to post a picture of my location last night (which Continue reading
