You knew it was coming. I’ve been in the same spot (mostly) for over two years now and that seems to be the threshold. My boots have got to tingling; my wandering foot is a twitching. What is it you have in mind you ask? Oh good, I was just about to tell you. South. […]

Freewheelings Five Best Travel Articles on Friday
The good news in that we have a wonderful lineup to keep you from whatever else it is that you’re supposed to be doing right now. I personally encourage you to keep not doing whatever it is that you’re supposed to be doing. You might want to make that a goal. Stop doing all the […]
Mysticism in an Indian Bazaar
I’ve avoided speaking much on matters of faith here at freewheelings. You might expect my views to be somewhat unconventional and I imagine that they are.

New Delhi – Five Years of Progress
If you’ve been to India you can imagine my surprise stepping off of the plane for the first time in the middle of New Delhi. I was all of 20 years old the first time I left my own country. It was mid may and the air was steamy, heavy, damp. My clothes instantly clung […]
