Listening to FUTURE THINKERS @ Plovdiv, Bulgaria, June 11, 2019
Listening to FUTURE THINKERS One of the exciting perks of traveling around the world is, in theory, you can choose to visit anyone who lives close to your itineraries. While visiting Bulgaria, I had the pleasure to visit the producers of FUTURE THINKERS PODCAST, a podcast about evolving technology, society, and consciousness (https://futurethinkers.org). As much as I enjoy listening to their episodes, it was a memorable experience to listen to their stories about how they came up with the idea and the joy and struggles along...
Listening to Tina @ American University of Beirut, Beirut, Lebanon, January 2019
Although I stayed in Lebanon for a relatively long period of time, I cannot claim that I achieved a good level of understanding of the country. It is a lot to learn about. Lebanon has been shaped by several major civilizations of the world spanning thousands of years, and it is known for being the most religiously diverse in the Middle East. If the country is a book, I only had a few glances at the table of contents. But listening to Tina’s stories helped breathe...
Listening to Jinyoung and Seona, an overlanding couple from Korea, December 2018
Until now, I have not met any other overlanders (people who travel overland, usually in motorized vehicles) from South Korea. While posting questions on one of the biggest overlanders’ forum online, PanAmerican Travelers’ Association, I ‘ran into’ Jinyoung there. Soon we figured that our itineraries across the Americas were very similar but not so much so that we could not actually coincide there. After several attempts of coordination, we could finally meet in one of the least expected places, Korea, when we were both having ‘breaks’...
Interview with Frankie Martinez, August 2017, Part 3
It is my great pleasure to publish an interview series with Frankie Martinez, filmed last year in New York. Mr. Martinez is widely regarded as one of the most innovative Latin dancers of our generation, but I’m certain that the video is no less inspiring to those who don’t practice dance. Because, I believe, it is about a person’s earnest life journey to purse the values he believes in. There are 3 videos in total and each one lasts about 40 mins. This is the 3rd...

On Moving Back to Hometown, with Patricia
Last month, I had the pleasure to listen to the stories of Patricia in Logroño, Spain. In this footage, she talks about what it was like to move back to her hometown and what she learned from the experience. @ Logroño, Spain, November 5, 2018
Interview with Beatriz Pérez, January 27, 2018
I met Beatriz back in January 2018 in León, México. Our relationship started as an automotive technician and a customer thanks to a Google Maps suggestion; however, we later connected in many different ways, which led me to stay in León for a week, totally unexpectedly. Beti greatly appreciated what I was doing and connected it with her own life’s plan – I normally try not to take things with grandeur mission statements but seeing the potential influence of what I am doing on her plans...
