What’s new?

Uncategorized
Even though I have been working on the site for almost ten years now, it is still very much work in progress. Here you’ll find what’s new on theonearmedcarb.com (and when I added it). During our latest visit to Argentina we spent a week in the NE, Mesopotamia. And we strolled through Buenos Aires again. [...]

the interview

Uncategorized
I don’t often agree to interviews, but when Harry Mitsidis, who runs www.thebesttraveled.com, asked me, I relented. It was fun to do, and it allowed me to make a few points about what I think is important in relation to traveling. Have a look, at the interview as well as Harry’s site (here), which contains an [...]

another one-armed crab

Uncategorized
The origin of the one-armed crab lies in a relatively thin rock layer in the Spanish Pyrenees, which contains abundant fossils of crabs distinguishing themselves by having just one arm. Anyhow, long story, not very relevant, but since then I have gone out of my way to find one-armed crabs, real ones, living ones. See the Sumba [...]

The Travelers’ Century Club

Uncategorized

The lack of adventures of Bruno & Sofia

Uncategorized
Dear all, It has been a while since the last instalment of the ongoing adventures of Bruno & Sofia saw the light. And that’s not because of lack of time. Rather, it is the lack of adventures. We, too, like so many of you, have been confined to the limits of the house, for much [...]

A Corona Update on the Life of Bruno and Sofia

Uncategorized
Dear all, No, it is NOT that time of the year again. Usually our random updates appear, conveniently and somehow entirely coincidentally, around the end of the year, or the beginning of the new one. But because I had really nothing to say, then, I never got around writing our newsletter. Now I still don’t [...]

The Sadly Predictable Year 2018 in the Life of Bruno & Sofia

Uncategorized
Dear all, us, doing a cooking workshop ourselves, in Laos We have become utterly predictable! Several of you asked me in the past few weeks “say, isn’t it time for you to depart again, on one of those long journeys of yours?” And you know, it is. Just as it is time for one of [...]
