Some cars you can't just walk past without stopping to take a good look at. They may be old timers, they may have a particular color or interesting accessories. And there there is this old GMC, which qualifies

It is not often that you see a mural blending so well into the overall appearance of the wall it is painted on. And I don't mean painting windows, doors, and balconies with vibrant life onto otherwise

I'm back again at the contest created by @wiseagent to write a movie review for Scrobble.life. This time I chose a film that for a long time I have considered my favorite, then one of my favorites, and

This morning I was struck by surprise. Apparently I did not qualify for the contest I have decided to participate in! And I was so sure I followed all the requirements: The film review I posted was over

In my quest to up my veggie-cooking game I came to try the method called blanche and shock. It basically means, boiling the veggies in heavily salted water for a short time, then dumping them into ice-water.

Welcome to the Quarter-Finals! That's it, folks. It's the round of 8, and all of the teams whose flag I could be waving have been eliminated. That means, this world cup has become much less interesting

It's been a while, but I am back to the weekly Street Art Contest which is up to number 308. Wow! I remember when it just started out, some ... loooong time ago. Having returned from my trip on the Baja

What is reality? Do we actually exist? How do we know we're not dreaming? What does it all mean, if anything? Around the time I was twenty, I found these questions of exceptional importance. In fact, they

Do you watch the world cup? Who doesn't? Do you celebrate when your country wins? Why wouldn't you? Do these celebrations get a bit wild sometimes? I'm sure they might . . . Still, I believe your celebrations

These are the posts I have used to enter the #BeerSaturday challenge, created every week by @detlev. They range from craft to commercial, light to dark, and from the flavorful to the mundane. Cheers to

It's another Saturday, back home in normality, so let me post another beer review. This time it is a brew I came across quite a bit on my bicycle tour of the Baja California, especially on the southern

Writing reviews is a pretty big part of blogging. In fact, you could say it is the other major aspect of it. Posting about all the amazing things we've been doing and making ourselves is one side, but

When was the last time you looked at all the Hive accounts you follow? How about the following lists of other hiveans? Let me guess: it was pretty long ago, if ever. But maybe that's exactly what I should

After my bike trip I am now back to spending more time online, so I got to open pages I have been ignoring for months. Not because I am so excited about them, much rather just because they are still there

As my Baja trip was coming to an end I felt a touch of melancholy rise up in me. This was it. Mission accomplished. Now it was time to head back home. After such an adventure, this was the last thing my

On my way back to La Paz I stopped by the town of Todos Santos. Not that I really had a reason for it. It added about 2 km to my ride, but shaved off a bit of climbing. Both pretty insignificant. But it

After the amazing Cascadia to Aztlán bike trip, this is the continuation on my trusty bicycle, la Zorra Roja, from the US border in Tecate down along the Baja California peninsula in 2026.

After my Odyssee on the Terracerías I decided a bit of a break was well deserved. Also, Wednesday was coming up, which meant I needed to be connected to teach my class. So I checked into a hostel where

When I decided to skip the desert and teleport myself to La Paz I thought I would have two weeks of easy cycling. I would make the loop along the coast, hitting the famous diving town of Cabo Pulmo, going

Yours truly has become a cheater. Yeah, riding down the Baja California, he claimed. Cycling through the desert, he was going to do. More than 1000 km on a bike... And now? Happy greetings from La Paz?
