Dog Bites and Bee Stings

I’ve never been “guy who is getting some work done on the laptop while at the airport” but I am at Midway in Chicago doing exactly that. Im in a cafeteria that I came across while walking to my mysterious Gate A4A, which feels like a ten minute walk from the rest of the airport (“It’s a long walk, isn’t it!?” says one Midwestern mom to another one while heading towards the gate.)

I’m on my way to San Diego. I plan to cross the border of Mexico by foot and head into Tijuana, Baja California, Mexico later today. My plan is to travel from Tijuana to Patagonia, way down south in South America. I have six months in mind for a time frame, but honestly, who knows. Send me some money and I’ll keep writing and traveling!

This is Day 1. Welcome.
