As-Salamu Alaykum

2011 is upon us and I have grown antennas.  (This photo taken next to Ground Zero on Jan. 1, 2011.  A bit lost and trying to find Wall St.)

An update as to the state of Backpacker Journalism:

The actual website www.backpackerjournalism.com no longer exists because I didn't renew the domain and really have no use for it.

Mobile Journalism has gone the way of social media.

Maybe someday someone will think BPJ is a clever name and concept and give it a try.  But for now I feel like this blog is just as important so it remains and will perhaps simply live on as the IDEA of Backpacker Journalism.

Blogger is the perfect platform for expressing the feelings that I had while traveling around the world last year.  There's really no need for an extraneous website!  Death to homepages.  Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, Blogger and Flickr are all you need ... for now.

So what's in store for 2011?  Flocks of dead birds and fishes?  The year countdown to a collective (human) evolution?  Who knows?

I am planning a return trip to India in December but before that perhaps there'll be an adventure in Honduras in June.  And as usual - the United States of America.

Truly ... thanks to everyone that followed my travels and very dearly commented on my posts, photos and videos. More to come!  As-Salamu Alaykum!
