Thoughts from your host…

Sometimes in life, one is lucky enough to go on an adventure. Sometimes bags get packed, and passports are pulled from the drawer, and one strikes out to go somewhere really special.

That was me last month and I counted myself truly lucky for every incredible second.

It was an adventure that was being planned right before the world faced a global crisis…so being able to finally make it happen felt like a gift, and a sign that life can carry on.

The adventure allowed me a chance to look at the world through my camera lens again, all while other passions sat and waited for a while. Less books, less film, but lots and lots of food, photography, and putting a few more miles on my soul.

Thanks for letting me take the break – and if you followed along with any of my feeds, thanks for coming with me!

Now, though – time has come to turn my microphone on again and I’m really excited to be doing it with a passionate guest and such a fun film. You’ll be able to hear the excitement in our voices, I’m sure – part of that comes from the subject matter, but I believe part of that too comes from the fact that my guest and I now get on like old friends catching up over drinks.

Kinda funny, that – it’s like the song from The Muppets: They don’t have a word yet / for old friends who’ve just met

Thanks for sticking around.
