Journalist, author, traveler. Just a few labels I answer to. I grew up in Santa Cruz, CA, managed to graduate from Notre Dame, and have worked in Chicago, London, the Bay Area and a few other places.

Media

Among the clips, listen to me on NPR and read about me in the New York Times.

Ryan’s Pics

A few shots from travels worldwide plus a crowd-pleasing baby pic.

Experience

Books, websites, newspapers, magazines and more. A career that’s cost many a keyboard.

Six New Books

New guidebooks include three covering alluring Bali, one dedicated to the true adventure that is Indonesia plus the Netherlands and Switzerland.

Lost at Sea

I live-blogged my 40 farcical hours on a cruise on Facebook. Read about why you don’t want to shake hands with just anybody, see why the sausage bar was looted and witness a comic who needs to walk the plank.

Amtrak Escapade

A week lost due to derailments and a blizzard produce a memorable trip across the frozen northern US.

Bali Art Interview

My insights on Balinese art pegged to the landmark San Francisco Asian Art Museum exhibit.

Favorite Beer

This hoppy Oregon brew is one of the best I’ve ever had.
