The best bottle opener on the planet. I believe it was back in early September 2012 — when I celebrated being half of my Mother’s age — that I acquired the above bottle opener. At that point I spent a week on the beaches south of Lisbon doing exactly nothing. Honestly, lying on […] No, it’s not my birthday, but it is an important day for me: My mom was 14,095 days old when she gave birth to me. Practically speaking, it means that I am, today, exactly half of my Mother’s age.

My last few days in Weimar left me exhausted, and I ended up going to bed […] For those of you keeping track of me, I’m in Lisbon.
