http://blog.thetablelesstraveled.com/2011/04/letter-to-my-best-friend.html
Tuesday, April 19, 2011. A Letter to My Best Friend. Written 3/21/2011 en route to Tunis, Tunisia). Goodbyes are not my strong suit – especially when they’re emotional. I came to South Africa with very few expectations…to see my best friend and hang out for a month. I walked away with so much more. I’ve been welcomed into so many homes and families and it’s hard to walk away now. On the way to the airport. I get it now. I tried to stay strong but it was an emotional moment. With me I thought the least I ...

http://blog.thetablelesstraveled.com/2016_08_01_archive.html
Wednesday, August 24, 2016. Exploring Italy's Hidden Gem, Emilia-Romagna. The name of this Italian city sounded oddly familiar even though I didn't know it. After pecking a few letters into Google it dawned on me I knew this city because.my baloney has a first name it's.from BOLOGNA. Yes, Bologna is the home of Mortadella sausage which is the root of what we know as baloney in America. Call a food by where it's from. During a hot August day, I met Alessandro from Italian Days Food Tours. With full bellie...

The South African Experience: Mus'ukungibiza 'uMlungu' (Literally - Stop Calling Me 'White')
http://chadwolver.blogspot.com/2011/10/musukungibiza-umlungu-literally-stop.html

As you have probably noticed (only because you're most likely American, I will assure you of that), I have no problem writing "black," "coloured" or "white." These are all terms that are very commonplace. Am I not just a human being? After being here for so long, however, I have gained a enhanced appreciation of this practice of recognizing skin color. What a beautiful campus. There was...

Tuesday, September 30, 2014. What Dreams Are Made Of. Cuban sandwiches…dripping juices from a heaping pile of pork fat, grilled to a perfect golden color, oozing cheese out the sides, so beautiful my mouth is watering, and…all of a sudden, a vegetarian pasta mush (wahhhhhh) is dropped on my tray in seat 24G on Lufthansa flight 491. Fictional food from my in-flight movie: 1. Real airplane food: 0 (sorry, Lufthansa). The Hundred Foot Journey. My quarter-life crisis has turned into a third-life crisis. ...
