Pre-Departure - 30 days at sea off the coast of Namibia
It's three weeks before I head out on a ship expedition with my guitar on my back. I'll spend about a month at sea, writing songs and operating machinery used for mapping the seafloor off the coast of Namibia (southwest Africa) in the Atlantic Ocean.
This photo was taken on train ride to the village where some of my cousins live, in Moldova (northeastern Romania). These days, I'm in Houston, savoring the last bit of "home" and playing a couple of shows before I leave.
