I’ve meant to blog this for a while; our friend Nate (originally Arvind’s friend, but like all good friends he has been adopted into the wider family) has been hard at work prepping for the launch of Lodger Footwear, his premium shoe shop and service… but that description somehow doesn’t do it justice. Nate has a vision for living, wearing, eating, well — and part of that ethos is the driving force behind the brand.
Check out the blog, where you’ll learn some fascinating facts about the creation of fine footwear and other things related to living well.
I don’t own a pair yet, but I’m very envious of Arvind’s shoes!
My friend David is off to Argentina to begin his life as a diplomat. We had drinks on Friday - was amazing to hear him describe the places and people he’s going to be living and working in/with. He tells me that on a clear day, he can see Uruguay from his apartment.
The whole concept of picking up and relocating my life, however, is not one I find palatable and am happy to leave David to it. It’s sad to see him go, and great chat and Harrison Ford impressions will have to wait until he works out Skype, but at least I’ll have somewhere to stay when I’m in Buenos Aires.
I may need to take up golf, first, of course. I understand its an essential component of the expat existence over there.
