I’m really excited to share some news. While we’re in India Sage will be doing a little teaching. The first one to announce is in Bangalore where she’ll be offering a workshop through Improv Comedy Bangalore. Day one will be … Continue reading Improv Workshop with Sage in Bangalore
Another weekend is here and I’m happy to find that our plans are already taking us to a library I haven’t yet visited as a part of this project. The Palmerston branch has something most libraries in Toronto lack: a theatre space located in the basement. Sage will be performing there later today. The library is in a part of the city called the Annex where we lived from 2013-2015. It is an interesting mix of quiet residential streets and a vibrant street life on Bloor street.

In about 2010 we were all living closer to the centre of the city. The easiest way for me to get places was to take my bicycle. Unfortunately, though, that meant leaving my 9 year old son at home as … Continue reading Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge: Things People Drive (ride, pilot or captain)
After several months at home, this week it is time to take a business trip and I’m not looking forward to it. While sometimes I’ve been sent to the suburbs of New York City or even Belgium, this time it’s to Ohio. And I’m not just going to Ohio which sounds really boring, it’s in rural Ohio.

Continue reading Libraries on the Road: Off to Cleveland
I’m sitting on the couch and I’m wailing, “But I don’t LIKE travelling by myself. Why did I say I’d go? I hate being a tourist and there’s nothing else to do in a strange city. I wish I could spend the next six days getting WORK done instead of going to stupid CHICAGO.”
“How about this,” says my partner Todd, “How about we give you a Photo Treasure Hunt? That gives you a reason to wander around the city.” Continue reading Guest Post: Sage Goes to Chicago
One of the most fun aspects of a long cycling trip starts weeks or even months before departure: Route Planning. Maps are one of my favourite things. They are, in and of themselves, a “choose your own adventure” story. Choose … Continue reading India Cycling Trip: Route Planning Begins – With Your Help
It’s happened, I’ve booked another trip to India next year and this time Sage will be coming along. Of course I have a few extra plans in the works. For literally decades, I’ve been dreaming of going on a bicycle tour within India. That idea even played a small part in my learning to speak Hindi. Continue reading Next Trip to India – and a Request
