Now Arriving! Podcast

This podcast has a new name as it morphs from letters the host shares during covid lockdown to stories from travel episodes. The title "Now Arriving!" points to the wide-eyed and slightly off balance feeling a traveler has when reaching a new destination. The host wonders: "Is it possible to learn to see our everyday lives with the same anticipation for new experience? After all, we are actually arriving every single moment. Boredom, on the other hand, is never arriving. It is a slow crawling destination fixation.

    Time and Distance: Michelle

    This is a reading of a letter to a friend who flew today for the first time since the pandemic started. She's headed to Tennessee to take care of her 95-year-old father for two months. I know the whole trip, starting with the flight, won't be easy easy. I wanted her to be able to hear the Colorado aspen trees when she is far from her cabin in the woods where she retreats from the over-busy world as often as she can. I'm sending her that wonderful sound.
