Staying at Home and Eating

Posted on 05/31/202005/31/2020 by margrad80

My shopping and eating habits are greatly changed from being in South America. When I first started shopping in the US after the Covid19 shut down, folks were hording, so I was quite comfortable with limited choices. No longer am I eager to see what the grocery store has in stock. I know when I…

A Trip Off the Budget Path

Posted on 03/03/202003/16/2020 by margrad80

A friend treated me to a trip to the Galápagos Islands. That was really kind of her, since I really can’t afford to do things like that. That being said, I will write this post as if I where the one paying for everything. I don’t want to give the reader an unrealistic idea of…

Ceviche! Viva Peru

Posted on 02/06/2020 by margrad80

I haven’t eaten out very much since I have been here. I find it hard to motivate myself to dine out when I will be dining alone. Soon a friend will be coming from the States, so I am using saving money for her visit as an excuse not to go out. But one day…

A Year of Nomadic Foods

Posted on 09/06/2019 by margrad80

After I sold my place in Honolulu, I was able to stay at a friends place until it was time for me to fly out. I really had no idea of when or even if I would be returning. I have to say, that during that time I ran around eating all my favorite Hawaiian…

Medellin Food

This first part is about my experience in Medellin. Click here to skip straight to the food. Actually when I am bored, I think about food, I plan food, I shop for food, and I eat. I have been in Medellin for nearly a month now, and I feel that I have to make one…

Murder Capital of the World: Meh

Posted on 08/04/201908/04/2019 by margrad80

It is hard to believe that this is the city, which was dubbed the Murder Capital of the World over 25 years ago. Today Medellin is a vibrant relatively safe city. It is a large city, with homeless, petty thieves, drunks, prostitutes, and the expected number of murders in those areas of the city where…

A Transition: July 10 – 17, 2017

Posted on 07/25/201907/25/2019 by margrad80

I was sad to leave Warsaw. In some ways it wasn’t as fun as Mexico or Ecuador, but in overall lifestyle, it fitted me well. It is a bummer that I was limited to 90 days in a 180 period in Poland. If it weren’t going to be winter when I leave here, I would…

Last Days in Warsaw: 2019

Posted on 07/21/2019 by margrad80

This post will be published out of order, since I decided that the story of my last few days in Warsaw really didn’t need to be written if I got pressed for time. As it turns out, I have found myself with some time on my hands here in Medellin, Colombia. The apartment here is…

My Inconvenient Live

I am a retired American Merchant Mariner.  l was living a nomadic lifestyle somewhere between being a nomad and an expat, before Covid19. I moved from country to country as my visas ran out. This blog covered my travels and the random thoughts about life, technology, travel, and the Oxford comma. Now I am stuck waiting for the pandemic to pass. During this time my posts will have very little to do with traveling, and more to do with keeping myself entertained during lockdown.
