What is this site about?
I don't care much for "about me" sections. I'm interested in ideas, not self-promotion. I may share more about myself as I become more comfortable with all this. For now I'm just a traveler. You can call me Tully.
This site is about ideas, the daily business of thinking. But I recognize that the medium matters too. So consider this a section in development. I will add more as I learn how to use the site. I hope in time to add more interactive elements.
Instead of talking about myself, I will talk about things that matter to me: books, music, films and destinations that may also be worth your time. You can contact me through the email address below.
