It has happened again; four months after the attacks in Paris, three years after Boston, 11 years after London, almost 15 after New York, in a peaceful little country called Brussels, the hateful face of humanity has peered back at us. We have been attacked in the peaceful moments of our day: going to work, … Continue reading Fear & Loathing in Brussels

While I was there I experienced a very surreal moment; looking out … Continue reading Time & Recap
