The here and now... and what and why

Complacency is a trap. At least that’s what I was thinking when I up and left the comfort of a Yankee prep school gig, where I taught music, amongst other things, for 28 years. There was also that life long career as a composer, musician and artist.

First, it was a year in St. Thomas, USVI, working as a reporter and shooting photography and then, a year in San Agustin Etla, Oaxaca, Mexico.
Time passed.
More time passed and a year back in the Athens of America followed by a hasty return to Oaxaca where it is all happening.
A couple of years in San Sebastian Etla and now, just down the road in San Pablo Etla. Life is good.

You can find my music on Jango (World & latin - Worldbeat) and at iTunes and most online stores.
¡Soy consciente de todas las tradiciones del Internet!
If you are coming to Oaxaca, please contact me for tours or advice.

Surf's Up!

Dude,
from Surfer Today
The 2011 Zicatela Pro has been confirmed and will showcase the best planetary bodyboaders in the incredible wave conditions on offer in Mexico. Zicatela is the main beach of Puerto Escondido, a long stretch of slabbing, sand-bottom peaks that offer fast pits and punchy ramps, enough to keep any bodyboarder satisfied for weeks on end. 

This is one of the heaviest beach breaks in the world and breaks on just about any size of swell, producing left and right peaks up to about six foot and holding massive lefts further down the beach (up to 20 feet) when it gets serious.
