  • Temples Outside of Hoi An and HCMC

    Temples Outside of Hoi An and HCMC

    Sofia and I were only able to take one road trip. It was a fun day trip outside of Hoi An, visiting the clay brick Cham temples out there. A lot of societies grappled for Vietnam- particularly the south eastern portion of the country. The Chams were a Vedic culture, which brought Buddhism with them.…

    Here are some pictures we took in Hoi An. Great times, good little scooter jaunt.

  • Eastern “Medicine” Museum and 2/3 Street Temple

    Eastern “Medicine” Museum and 2/3 Street Temple

    Sofia and I went to a Eastern “Medicine” Museum in HCMC where they had a bunch of herbal medicine woo-woo hooey with about as much research and careful effort as you’d expect put into presentation and factual accuracy. The Bảo Tàng Y Học Cổ truyền Việt Nam (Museum and Study of traditional Vietnamese Medicine, maybe?)…

    Final Smiths/Nicholsons

    I found the last photos of the Smiths/Nicholsons. These were in 2015, not the last ones. So, they were in, like, 2010 or something. I think we got together every 5 years or something.

    5 Years Later, 8 Years Ago

    I went to visit the Smiths/Nicholsons 5 years after we met in New Zealand and took these photos. It was the first time I’d been to England as an adult. It was a lot of fun and these rascals made it all possible. Thanks for hosting me all those years ago, y’all! XOX

    Thi and Bobby McGee (Minus Bobby McGee)

    We went to Phu Quoc and visited Ms. Thi and Kevin. It was fun. We snorkeled, got some minor sun burns and Sofia had a breakout because of the sunscreen she used. It was traumatic for all of us.

    Antoecian/Antipodean

    In April of 2005, I went to New Zealand and briefly lived on a commune with some good friends whom I had the pleasure of eating with this weekend. Here are some photos from my New Zealand trip, some 19 years in my past. I had no idea how to use a camera, even the…

  • The Kids Came to London

    The Kids Came to London

    The kids came up to visit us and we tooled around London for the day. We went to Abney Park Cemetery, kicked around London and made an obligatory trip to the Lego store. We had a super kick ass time and Buddy and Kaya got to sleep on our floor, which was more exciting than…

    David Lynch Cabaret’d

    My buddy, Catherine, was doing some cabaret a while ago and invited to go see the show. It was great. I went back to shoot some photos of her and the whole show- it was, as always, fantastic. Really cool acts, legitimate artists, true creativity.
