My brother used to ask the birds to forgive him; that sounds senseless but it is right; for all is like the ocean, all things flow and touch each other; a disturbance in one place is felt at the other end of the world.

—Fyodor Dostoevsky, The Brothers Karamazov

 

I am an American expat in the Jiu Valley, Romania, trying to make a home and a life that honors this profound and difficult truth: we are all responsible to all and for all. I created this space to share my life and work with those who are interested. I write, take photographs, and collect stories in the hopes of connecting with my neighbors near and far, of which you are a part.

May we all be blessed.
