Reading about overtourism and degrowth didn’t feel like encountering a new idea.It felt like recognizing a language for something I had been circling for a long time. The word arrived late.The sensitivity came early. Long before I became a nomad, I learned — without naming it — that places behave like ecosystems.They don’t thrive through […]
The Nomad is a growing collection of stories, fascinations, encounters, observations, lived moments — and the quiet (and not-so-quiet) joy hidden inside them.They’re all rooted in my life, wandering freely between places, people, questions, and unexpected turns. Many of these stories eventually find their way into the book — others insist on staying a little […]
In February 2022, I spent two weeks at the fazenda of my dear friend Regina Cohen — a shaman, natural healer, and woman equally at home in Manhattan and Rio de Janeiro. She co-owns a fazenda in the mountains of Minas Gerais, Brazil. The place is raw, remote, and almost untouched by time. Nestled in […]

Unlike its bustling neighbor Bali, Sumba has preserved a deep sense of tradition – where […]

Western Australia, 2024–2025. I came here intending to be alone.Not accidentally — deliberately. South Fremantle first.Then Yanchep. Two places, very different, both quiet in their own way.
