The internet has changed and blogs are largely dead as old timers like me think of them – places where you could post an idea or thought or photo and then have conversations about it with strangers who would possibly become friends. This blog used to be a place like that but gradually, like…
First of all – I’ve put together a couple of online galleries in the metaverse that showcase the work I’ve been doing the past couple of months: This is the best of the art that I’ve created since coming into the NFTverse https://oncyber.io/vagobond This is the collective work of the Bald Jesus Collective which I’m…
I’ve built a Discord Community for Vagobond. If you want to talk story about travel or crypto or whatever, come join. Here’s the link to it: cSpUEzcmM4. And as always I’m still on Twitter @vagobond though it seems that after 15 years, Twitter has put me in a silo where even the people who follow…

It’s not Morocco. Maybe I can find it by going home again…I hope so.
On my first trip to Paris, I went to the Louvre – saw the huge line of people waiting to go into the glass pyramid and said “Forget this, I’d rather walk along the left bank and look at the book stalls.” There are incredible things to see in the Louvre. After hearing about the…
