Hello again. Our little Lu is here. We're emerging from the moon-eyed, sleep-deprived newborn haze.
All in Lost + Found
The Pause
It's been quiet around here lately. This is because we've been staying close to home, waiting for our baby to arrive.
An Unexpected Discovery
A little while after I posted my father's account of a roadtrip he took in 1977 to the USSR, I noticed a lot of the traffic to this site was coming from Russia and the Ukraine.
The Book Shop
The thing that’s putting a smile on my face today (and making me want to cross-reference my shelves to my closet) is the mini project of 'shopgirl' Eleisha—matching her vintage outfits to equally fetching book covers.
A Smitty for Let's Get Lost!
I'm really honoured to announce that Let's Get Lost is a runner-up in the Independent Travel Photo Journalist/Videographer category at the 2014 Travel + Leisure 'Smitty Awards'.
Live from Belgrade Transit
I've long been getting a laugh (and the occasional face palm) from the Facebook account Live from Belgrade Transit. Riders submit photos from their daily commutes bringing to life many of the city's urban legends.
Can I brighten your day?
A few days ago, among the usual suspects in my mailbox was a sturdy black envelope. I opened it to find some dreamy photo prints from a generous (and seriously talented) friend, Raina Kirn.

Polar (Bear) Vortex
I've been on a virtual travel kick, so it was particularly great to hear about Google Street View's latest project: mapping Canada's polar bear country!
How Do I Get There?
There is nothing I trust more than a good, hand-drawn map. Beyond a way finder, it's a record of time and a secret path into someone else's experience of place.
Above the Andes
A recently found note from my dad: "On our flight from Santiago de Chile to Buenos Aires, Argentina we were extremely lucky to have clear skies and an opportunity to take this amazing photos of the Andes.
Not an Island
Thank you for taking time to explore this corner of the internet over the years. I so appreciate it, and hope to share even more travels and discoveries in 2014.
Hot Springs!
Need I say more guys? Time by time, through our apartment window I can spot some discreet types tip-toeing across a particular rooftop. A few quick steps, a tossed towel and splash—they are in their rooftop hot tub.
Whistle+Work x Yen Magazine
Continuing our reprieve from the snow and windchill outside, there are some more sunny news in my part of town.
Whistle + Work
I've been working away on a new project and I thought I'd share, just in case you need some handmade gift-giving inspiration.
