the premise

I imagine this to be a sort of virtual bulletin board as we try to figure out where we belong and what to call home. I’m coming at this as one half of a couple, as a parent, as a geographer with some training in how, where and when communities form, and as a mindful early twentyfirstcenturian, agnostic but interesting in carving out a life with a purpose. What I’d like to explore:

where to live in terms of geography.

where to live in terms of setting–rural, urban, etc.

how to understand and manage the pressures of life today–two careers, avoiding long commutes, overpriced real estate, overdependence on cars, and too much time computing, not enough creating.

refinements to follow.
