Towels packed, will travel. By towelspacked on July 29, 2015. This summer marks fifteen years since D first picked up a disc and started playing ultimate frisbee, a trajectory that has taken him from his New England college team to pick-up games in Spain and Costa Rica, tournaments throughout East Africa. And most recently the role of field captain for Moldova’s Flying Mamaligas. After an uncompetitive 10-0 victory over Gamble, a recently formed all-female team from Kyiv, the Flying Mamaligas regrouped a...

postcards from Transnistria | towels packed, will travel
https://towelspacked.wordpress.com/2015/08/03/postcards-from-transnistria
Towels packed, will travel. By towelspacked on August 3, 2015. The thin strip of Moldovan land on the left bank of the Nistru River holds an undeniable fascination for Western visitors, who long to see its still-venerated Soviet symbols with their own eyes. Even the prominent Lenin statue, which stands in front of Tiraspol’s Supreme Soviet building has a counterpart in Chisinau. The same sports director who had greeted D on his previous visit to KVINT. After the tasting, we walked around the center of Ti...

too hot to handle | towels packed, will travel
https://towelspacked.wordpress.com/2013/06/12/too-hot-to-handle
Towels packed, will travel. Too hot to handle. By towelspacked on June 12, 2013. The air, hot and thick like a woolen blanket, enveloped us as soon as we opened the car doors. It may have been close to 8pm, but the temperature at the aptly named Stovepipe Wells hovered close to 100 F. If we had jumped the gun in the Sierra Nevada. A few weeks before the official start of the tourist season, then we were definitely late to the party in Death Valley. Larr; the scenic route to Death Valley. Being a lover of...

Towels packed, will travel. By towelspacked on August 19, 2012. To Red Chilli Hideaway, Kampala’s most popular backpacker hostel, and claimed the last seats on a bus overflowing with eager tourists for the hour-long ride to Jinja. A version of this story will appear in the next issue of ArtLife. Nairobi folks, check it out! Larr; triumphant return to the seven hills. I think I would have been with your friend in the safety boat :). August 21, 2012. August 21, 2012. Leave a Reply Cancel reply. The views e...

https://towelspacked.wordpress.com/2013/07/17/the-end-of-the-road-2
Towels packed, will travel. The end of the road. By towelspacked on July 17, 2013. Like all good things, our trip too came to an end. After a full day in Big Sur. We arrived in Santa Cruz just as the sun set. The next day — our last in California — we drove up to San Francisco. S caught up again with Amira. We covered a lot of ground during our three weeks in California:. 14 — The number of national parks. 9,100 feet — Gem Lake. Is the lowest point we visited. Nearly made us wilt. On either side of o...

Phenomenal Phnews: Just Stay Still and Look at the Green Light
http://internationalcovercambodia.blogspot.com/2014/10/just-stay-still-and-look-at-green-light.html
Tales from life in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. Sunday, October 19, 2014. Just Stay Still and Look at the Green Light. I have now joined the ranks of people who have had lasik surgery. I got a great deal from this back-alley surgeon in Phnom Penh. Just kidding! I traveled to Bangkok to the well-respected TRSC International Lasik Centre. As promised, the surgery was quick and painless. I felt only slight pressure but no pain. I did smell a slight, brief odor. I was easily able to keep my eyes focused...My eyes a...

Our African Home: February 2012
http://internationalcoverkenya.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
Tales from life in Nairobi, Kenya. Monday, February 13, 2012. Last weekend, I toured Brown's Cheese factory. Brown's is the only edible cheese I've found in Kenya, and it's quite good! First we donned lab coats and attractive hair nets:. At the end of the tour, we were rewarded with a scrumptious sampling of 10 of them. I also went home with about $40 worth of cheese!
