Travel
The travel work is strongest when it stays concrete: trains, hostels, streets, miscommunications, landscapes, and the texture of trying to understand a place from inside it rather than at a distance.
Start here
Section titled “Start here”- Around the World - A long-form 2016 travelogue through Asia and Europe, anchored in observation rather than summary.
- California Culture Talk in Yangshuo - A smaller bilingual piece that adds range and specificity to the travel section.
These pieces are not filler around the ‘serious work.’ They are one of the main places the site’s observational voice becomes obvious.
