ATL > LAX > HKG

Well, this is it. I’m on my way to the airport with my long distance boyfriend of 5 kickass years to bid adieu to my amazing family and to all things comfortable and familiar. In case you don’t know us well and/or we haven’t already talked your ear off about it, we’ve quit our jobs and will be backpacking across Southeast Asia for the next 7 months starting today. It won’t be easy, but the best things never are.

We’ll begin with a layover in LA, then Hong Kong to bring in the Year of the Snake. Then we’ll hop over to Bali for two months, then on to Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Cambodia, Laos and Vietnam. I’ll be reblogging my faves from our travel blog in just a few days, so stay tuned. It’s about to get weird.

This week’s cover for Thomas Wheatley’s amazing story on “What happens when your neighbor is a multimillion dollar shrine to sports”.

Went a little cheeky on this one. Everything looks very sweet even though something is clearly amiss. It’s the attitude you might embrace if you were, say, Arthur Blank for example: “Everything’s just fine and dandy. Sports! Yay! Nothing to see here. Move along. Thank you!” *Irony y’all* Anyway, I’m not sure all of that comes across, but I hope it does.

Are you excited yet?! 

Got to work with the oh-so-talented PLF on this week’s cover.

Pretty much hit the nail on the head with this one.

These are my Alphonse Mucha tattoos done by the fabulous Stenvick Mostrom of Liberty Tattoo in Atlanta, Georgia. The pieces are part of a set titled “Byzantine Heads” and are individually titled “The Brunette” (the one on the left) and “The Blond” (to the right)
