Places I've Been

Plains this year

A recent crossing of the central plains.

Quieter hills

A softer stretch between louder destinations.

East of the bay

A slower afternoon past Shenzhen: the lake, the hills, and the coast.

Fog and stacked streets

Stairs, bridges, and a city that climbs over itself.

Next to home

The province beside Hubei, kept on the same map.

A city rewriting itself

Glass, pace, and a skyline that keeps changing between visits.

Southern heat

A southern city of density, humidity, and forward motion.

Where the map begins

Home first. Every later route still starts from here.

West along the river of history

The first recorded trip away: walls, dust, and a longer sense of time.
