The cast of characters:

  Me.  Shown here having beer and apfelstrudel for breakfast in Munich.  I normally eat raisin nut bran or  special k.  In my non nomad life, I work at a big technology company. If you’d like to email me directly, I’m at:

Mr. Magic. My permanent, smelly, furry, heavy, happy traveling companion. I’m pretty sure he has no idea why the hell I’m dragging him all over creation.
 

  Tim.  Normally found in suburban Maryland, my brother occasionally leaves his internet business and tags along on my ridiculous missions.  Seen here being very scared and probably about to crash.
