Getting his equipment together to summit a mountain in Northern California on New Year’s Day to meditatively watch the rise of the supermoon.
The Idiot is determining whether the backpack function of his new high-tech Oniva Fusion chair is comfortable enough for him to climb a mountain to find the perfect place to sit and observe tomorrow’s “Full Wolf Moon,” the first of two supermoons in January 2018.
It’s a go.

He lived in France for over 30 years, working as a journalist, before he turned his attention to a unique life-time-project of walking the shores of the Mediterranean. The first 4,401 kilometers are explored in his inspirational and entertaining first book "The Idiot and the Odyssey: Walking the Mediterranean." The next 4,401 kilometers are covered in the gods-filled sequel, "The Idiot and the Odyssey II: Myth, Madness and Magic on the Mediterranean,” published on Valentine's Day 2013.
