I'm about to bleed poetry. I've had my apartment back to myself for two days since having company for three weeks; as my soul mate's family revealed health issues back in Italy, which means he's out the door. I don't think I'll ever stop crying at this point. But that's ok, eyedrops help, and at least I'm discrete. Dipping into restrooms, trying to avoid houseguests. Sto morendo. While break-ups aren't my favorite thing, I feel that this abrupt...
I've been limping over the luthier the past few days, and longing for Sperlonga. The truth is, the love of my life and I didn't fall out - life simply occurred. International issues with family do nothing for new found feelings. And so it ended, abruptly and instantly. My three-week house guest who arrived essentially the day this all went down has watched me basically die over the past month. I realize everyone has their own "the most...
Namaste. It's still surreal that I have had my heart destroyed to this degree, so recently. I'm glad that I have at least been able to entertain my three-week house guest.

Anyways, time for a drastic change. I'm not sure what it will be like yet - but it will be drastic....
Happy Sunday global love tribe Today I would like to send a special shoutout to Shenzhen, China. While I have not (yet) had the chance to travel to China, it has always been on the list. Particularly when I lived next door in Australia. However, all of my holidays back then involved traveling to New York City (naturally). It's always baffling to explore who on the planet we all co-habitate somehow finds my words in web land. Particularly since I...
About 20 hours from now, my plane will take off from JFK to Berlin, and then fly from Berlin to Rome. At this point, I feel like I am essentially paralyzed with excitement. All of the packing and preparing and talking to the luthier every day has swirled me into a pile of bones that needs to be put on a plane. There's really just nothing else I'm decent at right now... In effort to defy jet lag, I'm planning to stay up all night. This way when I...
