We ended up with some extra free time on our last night in South Korea. I hadn't had a chance to make it into the "coastal cluster" in Gangneung where...

As we enter the last week of Olympics, I figure I better get around to posting some of the work I've been up to here. The question I get most often from friends and family...

Today was a fun day. I've gone more than 3 weeks without a haircut, which for me is a really really long time. It's been driving me crazy, but finding a...

It's hard to go far in South Korea without seeing uses of geometric patterns in everything from objects to architecture. The prevalence of these patterns is one of the influences we've injected into...

"You guys want to go skiing?" is not the kind of text message I'm used to being woken up with. More surprising to me was seeing texts from two co-workers immediately say "sure." I had...

It's been a bit busy here, as you can probably imagine. I haven't lacked for things to snap pics of or write about, but just for finding the time to post them. We're usually making the most of our hours outside of our work shifts, even if...

We've been doing more in our off-hours this Olympics than probably any of the Games that I've worked before. (Maybe that accounts for not having time to post about what I'm up to?!) I don't know the reason for that, but I can't complain. (Well maybe for

One of the most common questions I get from family and friends is "how do we know when we see something you did?" In previous Games, I was a lot better at updating what I had done along the way - it may be that we're doing a lot

For once, I feel like i have more to post than I have time to actually sit down and write them. So with Olympics ending soon, I'm running out of time if they're going to be somewhat topical. With that in mind, I'm making this a quick post just to

We made it out of the Olympic Park bubble on Sunday afternoon after work. Olympic Park is in the neighborhood of Barra in Rio, which is about an hour or more southwest of city center as well as the beach areas of
