Roads without names... 

February of 2004 I set out to satisfy a childhood dream of living in a foreign country and writing that book they all say we have inside of us. This was an easier decision for me than it was the actuality of doing it. Armed with a lack of knowledge of the language, the body of a 70 year old, and no close friends or family outside the US, I purchased a reconstructed school house in Jablonka, Slovakia. I sold my house in Las Vegas, moved my furniture and began the adventure while I still could.
