I am fortunate to have traveled to many cities in the world. From Manila to Chicago, from Paris to Dubai, from Singapore to Cairo. Places that are my anchor, for the stories I tell. Stories that, in turn, lend meaning to these places. Not only mine, but also those of friends. our journeys, our journals.

"Divvy" is an Idea Whose Time Will Come
This neat row is Chicago Gets Ready to “Divvy” Up the Rewards of Large-Scale Bike-Share.
I played with line, perspective and light a bit, recalling what I saw in Frankfurt a month before (Bicycle Racks Designed as Bicycles). Chicago is very much a bus and train, a car and walk city. Bicycles are rather sparing.
Years ago I walked out of the train station in Copenhagen, and the surrounding was awash in bicycle after bicycle. You see, in Europe, gasoline is so expensive that scores of people have incentive to hop on their two-wheels.
In any case, Divvy is a good idea, and will need more time and effort to take root.
