When you haven’t seen your brother for so long that you mistake him for a rabbi. Or a Unabomber. Reunited and it feels so good.🎶 PS—that’s a WPA installation we are sitting on. #Siblings // #norcal //

Can’t resist a cemetery. Walked up 300 steps to the Cimitero Monumentale. IT WAS CLOSED! When am I gonna learn to check before I climb?! Woof! @mbolkcom was smart and lounged by the pool at the hotel. #amalfi / #italianlife / #checktwicewalkonce

Pompeii. Got on the wrong train. Twice. Thanks to Polizia we were steered in the right direction. (Also, he was handsome.) Explored for 3 hours. In the rain. Status: cold. Wet. And enamoured with ancient man. #italianlife / #pompeii /

I never met a cemetery I didn’t like. Some prefer to shop on vacation. Not me. This is where the human stories of a city are found. Cimitero Acattolico of Rome in the Testaccio ‘hood. Way off the tourist map but so worth it. Here lies beat poet Gregory Co

Me and my new boyfriend. Kind of dense and not good at small talk but reliable and useful. Might be hard to find a winter hat for this guy but, then again, he may only be around till Thanksgiving. @meghanmcinerny was involved with the decorative gourds bu

The graveyard in the hill above St. Patrick's Well. One of the most poignant epitaphs I've ever read -- "The Sheahan Sisters - late of Dernish St." Rest In Peace dear sisters. #irishlife / #knockpatrick / #madgeinireland☘️

We are ready to begin this climb! 3 fellas. 1 dog. And me! Let's do this! We are enthusiastic -- facing a 4+ hour climb. And to think I left the salami and cheese on the kitchen counter. 😕 But the Refugio is only a couple hours away! #italianlife

Guys. Geez, I'm slightly jet-lagged but had the presence of mind to make dinner before I collapse into bed. (I know, I know, #firstworldproblems) I'm half delirious but it involved beef fillet with green peppercorns, onion, a bit of potato. Rucola with ti
