I love books. I love food. And I love travel. Put together, those three loves make me one of the luckiest people alive. I am never bored, though i get restless. I don't believe in cynicism, because there's always room for awe. The most beautiful sights I have ever seen pale in comparison to the places I have yet to venture. Join me as I set foot on every continent on Earth. Curiosity may have killed the cat (I hope not -- I love cats), but it reminds me I'm alive, and that's an opportunity to explore. The very best way to explore is on a train, traversing whatever country I happen to visit, because trains are romantic, they are literary, and they are historic. All the things you want from travel.
