Timen has published an interview with me over at his site, InMyAllStars.com.

We discuss my thoughts on blogging, favourite places, and the future of Brave New Traveler. An excerpt:

What do you like most about traveling?

“I love the freedom of knowing you’re always on the move, constantly experiencing new places and meeting new people.

Also, as any backpacker knows, there’s an odd sort of instant companionship that permeates the nomad culture; anyone you meet, whether in a hostel, backcountry trek, or camel ride, is instantly your friend. I rarely feel such openness when I’m at home.”
