How far away from your birthplace do you live now? (inspired from a fb post)

So on Tuesday the question: How far away from your birthplace do you live now came up on facebook and I must say i saw a lot of answers i was not expecting.  I noticed a lot of people have moved quite a bit and far from their home town, so on that note... I decided to pitch in a write a blog post. 






The where I live question: i currently am basing out of the west village of new york, but am soon headed to a short stint in the tetons to work on a little stop-motion video (and hopefully see some special friends). i officially reside in washington state, as I have some family responsibilities with a mother with alzheimer's who lives on whidbey island there. my car is registered in wyoming, and i rent out a place in boulder so i can still stay there from time to time. is home where your therapist lives? cause he's in boulder. i ask you.

i'm originally from Corona del Mar, California. And while the place catches a lot of heat for being known of the most externally-oriented places on the planet, I will beg to differ that you can find soulful people anywhere. Newport among em. And well, the chances of these lovely individuals just possibly having a newly shaped nose or above average sized implants, well that's just comes with the territory. But here's why I will always return: the smell of the sage in that stretch of coast between Newport and Laguna. And night blooming jasmine on evening walks. Tacos at Wahoo's, and the sound of crashing waves at the Wedge.

And what's not to love about getting the best beachy hair highlights in the world from a woman named Anja? 

Hope you enjoyed it and feel free to share your thoughts or maybe even your own story!

I might be one of those rare people who actually loves airports.




I might be one of those rare people who actually loves airports. As in loves. There's something about being among my fellow travelers and enjoying what crazy neurotic traveling get-up they might have planned -- the buckwheat hulled neck pillow, the cheesy spy novel tumbling out of their bag, the over-priced eyemask, not to mention the opportunity to guess their destination. i also just enjoy the flying itself, getting put next to some unexpected person. As I believe we are all just one conversation away at any moment from meeting the most incredible person with their own unique set of stories. And flying has that strange luxury that you can ask wildly inappropriate and personal questions as there's this understanding that you are likely to never see that person again. So seat-mates can be particularly candid, particularly raw, particularly unedited. 

And then you have the added bonus of arriving at that new destination. My favorite is places are those I've never been, and I have a bias toward less developed wilder country. Perhaps because it matches my sense of my own interior, the unkempt nature that lives inside my own head. And that new destination might be a reflection externally of what I feel inside myself, making me feel in the words of david shields (taken from someone else I think) "a little less freakish, a little less lonely..." something like that.
