I’ve recently started to go back through the many photographs taken over the course of the year. I’m not kidding when I say that there are thousands of them! The majority of them adequately serve a purpose for us, as personal reminders of our travels. But some, I think, are composed and imaged well enough to print for display. I’ve been picking out and editing a few of my favorites from our original files. This week, I made several of these photographs available for purchase through Imagekind.com. It is a new-to-me service, but I’ve heard good things about it and thought I’d give it a try. There are lots of paper and framing options available. I’ll be offering more photos there over the next couple of weeks. And if there are other photos you’d like to see available for printing (some you may have seen through flickr), let me know.
Another reason that I’ve started to go back through our original photo files? Maybe there’s a “Photographs from A Year in Europe” book in the works? We’ll see…

Happy New Year, everyone! We’re both doing well and beginning to feel somewhat settled again. We are planning a “Where are we now” podcast, probably for release in the next couple of months. Stay tuned and all the best for 2008!

Hello everyone. Just a quick note to let you know that Sheryl and I are alive and well. For the past few weeks we’ve been in the midst of full-on “reentry” activities. Stuff like finding jobs, moving into a new place, renovating and painting, unpacking, etc. It is kind of a strange time warp to unpack things you haven’t seen in over a year and a half. Some of it has us scratching our heads asking, “Why in the world did we keep this?” And sometimes we ask, “Didn’t we have a (insert mysteriously vanished item here)?” Most of what we’re rediscovering is very welcome, though. Both of us agree that it is really, really nice to have more than a handful of clothing options to choose from everyday.
So we do have one other podcast from Europe that I intend to post later this week. And then we will be doing an episode from here to reflect on the trip and talk a bit about the reentry process we went through. I noticed that we were featured again on iTunes Music Store Podcast page, which is amazingly great. Welcome to all new listeners. And thanks to our long-time listeners for your continued support. More soon. Cheers!

Before A Year in Europe, I had a little blog called Mondo Veloce. But as our departure grew closer, I decided to close things down over there to focus on AYIE. Now that we’re back, I’m at the point where I want to start blogging about things that aren’t necessarily related to the trip. Like what, you might ask? Only the things that I find interesting like technology, film, photography, books, music, society, culture, design and art. Probably Apple. Maybe politics. Stuff like that.
Don’t worry. Even though we’re back, we’re not closing things down over here any time soon. We still have a couple of podcasts to put out, as well as another project related to the trip. And we’re working on our new Travel Store through Amazon, featuring a lot of items that we used on during our travels.
Thanks for your indulgence with the cross-promotion here. And if you’re looking for more blather on a variety of questionably interesting subjects, check out Mondo Veloce.

Get bumped up to Business Class! We were really fortunate to have been helped out by a fantastic British Airways staff member who bumped us up to Business Class because they needed our seats for the full flight. Needless to say, it was the very best flight we ever have had and we really enjoyed the legroom.

We’re back in the U.S.A. and it is sort of surreal. We’re still dealing with a touch of jetlag and a little bit of re-entry reverse culture shock. But we are glad to be here and ready to get on with the next phase of our lives. After a couple of weeks visiting with our families, stay tuned for some more podcasts.
