Today was the Inaugural Grand Prix of Indianapolis, the debut of Indy Car’s on the latest version of the internal road course previously. The old road course was used by Formula One and MotoGP. I’ve had the pleasure of attending and/or working F1, MotoGp, Indy 500, and the Brickyard 400 at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway....Read More

When the wind hits the Cherry trees, the petals fall, and it looks like Spring is snowing. It’s beautiful. Or how about this? Blossoms are scattered by the wind and the wind cares nothing, but the blossoms of the heart no wind can touch. Yoshida Kenko Sakura basically means Cherry Blossom season. Hanami is the...Read More

In all my travels, Sydney has been the toughest opponent when it comes to jet lag. It will lull you to sleep, then dump cold water on you at 2am. This time I played it differently. You can’t fall asleep if you don’t stop moving. I landed in Sydney from LAX at 7am. I grabbed...Read More

The day started with a quick trip on TAM Airlines from Sao Paulo over the Rio. Then a taxi ride to Ipanema Beach. Which isn’t too shabby. There are two main beaches in Rio – Ipanema and Copacabana – each is filled with breathtaking views, golden sand, beautiful people and lots of soccer. Amazing. For...Read More

The trip from southern Goa to Bhatkal Taluk takes 3 hours, one way. On the way down I saw cows, dogs, chickens, cats, pigs and a peacock. I passed Churches, Mosques and Temples. My driver overtook a hundred cars, mopeds, trucks, 3-wheeled cars, bicycles and avoided disenfranchised cows. It’s a stunning drive with lots of...Read More

Goa’s been on my list and I’m finally here. What a gift. Such beautiful beaches. I’m at Agonda Beach in Southern Goa. It’s more laid back than the northern beaches. This is a beach where dogs, cows and horses wander freely. And Europeans. Where the colors of India overflow into all areas of life. And...Read More

I love Sundays in big cities. They take a chill pill and it makes for great wandering. Mumbai got a good dose of sedatives today, despite it being India’s Republic Day, commemorating the 65th anniversary of the Constitution of India. It’s obviously a proud and important day to Indians. I felt lucky to be here...Read More
