I’m attempting to adventure peacefully—to travel and live in ways that support a peaceful climate.  Internally and externally.  So life is sustainable.  Imperfect at this, I lean on gratitude.  I’m especially grateful for the Indigenous, for peaceful nations … for the ability to bypass those who harm.

(This month, October 2026, I’m near Vancouver, BC, Canada.)

“Smile, breathe, and go slowly.”
— Thich Nhat Hanh
