Probe the Globe

This webpage is dedicated to my travels around the world and thoughts that accompany them. A Disclaimer: I hate the word 'blog'. For the past few years, hearing everyone and their mothers ramble on about 'blog's and 'blogging' and [insert blog-related buzz word here] has made me want to rub my ears on a cheese-grater. But in the end, this is much easier than sending out group emails and pictures, and everyone can check for updates without me having to fill up their inboxes.

Pictures: Israel and Palestine



This first album follows my trail from Tel Aviv to the northern Israeli towns of Akko and Tsfat. These 3 cities - though situated closely together in the small, New Hampshire - sized country - look and feel thousands of miles apart. Tel Aviv is secular, metropolitan Israel; Akko is the Palestine of a hundred years ago; Tsfat is the city of Jewish spiritual rediscovery.

The second album is from the country that occupies most of our international news coverage (excluding Iraq), Palestine. It's a place that merits a visit from anyone wanting to see exactly what "The Other Side of the Fence" really means. Despite being oppressed to a staggering degree, its citizens are some of the most kind-hearted people in the world whose spirit, pride and identity are unwavering.
