Travel

I’m a slow learner, @AerLingus, but I finally got the message. You won’t see me again. Sláinte!

Returning today from a week in Amsterdam. I’ll try to recreate the experience at home, but biking along Gowanus Canal might not be the same.

Dude brought his typewriter to the coffee shop, so my Portland bingo card didn’t stay dry for long.

I’m in Portland and I don’t remember if people jaywalk here so I’m not jaywalking and it’s weird.

My seat mate is narrating this bus trip, a few syllables at a time.

“Bus is full!”
“Time to go!”
“It’s raining!”
“Subway [sandwich shop]!”

Thank you Portland and @xoxo for being fantastic. Time to head home and make things happen.

Headed to Portland for a few days with the delightful nerds of @xoxo.

Thank you, Iceland! You were amazing. We will be back.

The number six air guitarist in the world (earlier reports of fifth place were erroneous) is leaving Finland. Iceland, here we come!

Today I hiked Iso‑Syöte, Finland’s southernmost fell, with new friends from Belgium, Bulgaria, Canada, Finland, Japan, Russia, and the UK.

I am the number five air guitarist in the world, and overwhelmed by my friends’ support. Thank you all for watching and cheering. PARTY TIME

Showtime. Windhammer is contestant number four.

Took 4th place at tonight’s Dark Horse competition and qualified for the @AGWC World Final, streaming live tomorrow! kaleva.fi/ilmakitara

If I qualify in tonight’s @AGWC Dark Horse competition, I’ll move on to the World Final on Friday, which will be live streamed. Stay tuned!

FINLAND. Windhammer is coming.

Heading home from @usairguitar summer camp. Traces of cabbage, birthday cake, hot dogs, and glitter are still on the soles of my shoes.

Today I failed to secure a reservation to ride the tallest water slide in the world.

Today I am going to ride the tallest water slide in the world.

Headed to Kansas City for a few days of @usairguitar shenanigans with my favorite family of weirdos!

NYC has considerably more noise and humidity than Alaska, but it is good to be home.

Advisory: I will be offline and on a cruise ship for the next week, because apparently that is now a thing I do. youtu.be/XoTolgUUgCQ

My lady and I will be in SF in April and want to spend a couple days at an Airbnb up or down the coast a bit. Location/activity suggestions?

Nice to see you, San Francisco. It’s been awhile.

The best thing about amtrak.com going down is that the ticket prices keep going up while you wait for the site to come back.

People of Los Angeles: I have arrived. Come see my friends and I battle for @usairguitar supremacy on Saturday: concerts.livenation.com/event/09004AC5…

This is my first Virgin America flight. No one has offered me any ecstasy yet.

You guys, I had the most perfect disaster of a @BoltBus experience this morning, and I can’t wait to tell you all about it.

Skipping what would’ve been my 9th SXSW in a row. I’ll miss seeing friends and films, but the interactive conference is just too bulky now.

On a train from Southampton to Brooklyn with @cr8tonmershon, eating the tasty lunch @jessiarrington packed for us. Life is good.
