Fred Erica visits Am Merica



My friend Fred Erica came to NY to visit from Hong Kong. We hit up the beach house in Mastic during the visit. Haeji, my friend from Korea also came along. Smith Point was so atmospheric. Engulfed in moistness rising off the cold underfoot.

Winter walks in Mastic and the common sands of the Hamptons

Dune Road, Westhampton, LI



Hamptons are a joke but there are some nice scenes here and there. Beyond the McMansions there still interweaves a bit of the nature that once was.

Hong Kong Fooey, just returned

I just got back from Hong Kong. Went on another work mission. I am glad to be back in NY. I think I am going to stay for a while. I want to relax out there in Mastic. The beach house is calling.

Its cold out...thinking of warmer days.



I took a walk into the back Gangs of Legian. As the Gangs got narrower and slimmer the moped frequency increased. Waiting in wall pockets and crannies for passing two wheel traffic. I lost myself for a bit in the alleyway maze but was shortstopped at this slow moving, discolored river. It was more hushed in these far reaches from Jl.Legian. Murkey.

More Lice

Walking around Legian, Bali

A lot of my time was spent in Legian.  If and when I return this will be my first destination again.  I would walk for hours and stare with my mouth ajar at what was going on around me.

Hong Kong





I stopped in Hong Kong for a few days to catch up with the millions of friends I made traveling there for work.  Hong Kong is the only city that is comparable to NYC in its size that I have been to.  I have such a love for HK.

Rice farming in Bali


I spent a lot of my time galavanting through the rice farms of Ubud.  Absolutely amazing views at every turn.

Stephen Landau


My friend came to meet me in Indonesia for a weekend while I was there.  Stephen lives with his beautiful wife May in Singapore.  Its only a 2.5 hour flight from Sing to Bali.  I am jealous.  Our 2 hours in flight would bring us to wonderful....Florida.

My Water

Everytime I am in a place that I don't trust the water I find myself replacing my liquid intake with the local beer.  Especially in warm places its mostly light pilsners.  Bintang kept my thirst quenched.  Its only like 75 cents with the current exchange rates. Speaking of which when I got to Indo I was getting 9000 rpi for a dollar but by departure I was receiving 11500 rpi.  My money was growing.
