A hybrid travelogue/collection of essays in the spirit of Montaigne as I try to figure out human nature while living in southern France. Like Montaigne, I write for myself, and this is a format where I can work through my own thoughts and put them down onto digital paper. This means that, like Montaigne, the writing will be disjointed and rambling with occasional flashes of wit and insight. Please feel free to weigh in if you've got it all figured out.
