An Etruscan Abroad

An expanding collection of memories, experiences, peoples, and cultures from my journeys abroad.

30th Birthday

Cealxśne: At Thirty Years

At the end of May 2022, I decided on a big trip for my 30th birthday. After 2 years of the emotional rollercoaster and tumult that was the pandemic, I figured 3 weeks in Europe would be a good reset. I was fortunate to run into a whole bunch of wonderful people everywhere I went, from hopping around the Greek islands, bouncing from locations on both German and Italian sides of the Alps, and relaxing in Berlin. This video is my little way of saying thank you to them all. ...and apologies for the Etruscan title.

New Years 2020

Bonne Année: New Year in Europe 2020

In December 2019, Several friends and I decided to spend New Year in Paris, oblivious to the pandemic that would soon engulf the world and separate us. We bounced from Vienna, Paris, Bordeaux, and then off to different places - myself going to Italy to visit family and some cities that were long overdue. Enjoy our journey!

Argentina

Catártico: Respite in Argentina

At the end of May 2019, my cousin from Milan and I went on a trip to Argentina for my 28th birthday. This was on the back of a severe anxiety meltdown and its recovery. There was a lot of fear that I'd be an anxious mess the whole time, but thankfully, it abated. Our plans of driving around fell apart the day we got there, and, in 24 hours, we hurriedly threw together a new itinerary for the next two weeks - Flying around the country, meeting all sorts of new and interesting people, and appreciating the beauty of the landscape. This video is a love letter to Argentina and all those that made us feel right at home.

Montenegro

Одлучно: Jewel of the Adriatic

In April 2018 I was invited by a former roommate to come to visit her, her family & friends in their beautiful country of Crna Gora (Montenegro). For a little over a week, they hosted me and showed me around a country that few would think to go to - or could even point out on a map for that matter. This body of work is a love letter to them, their country and a thank you to everyone there who showed me a wonderful time.

Anatolia

Απώλεια: The West Anatolian Coast

In September 2017 a friend and I flew to Turkey to visit his family and do some traveling. We went down the Anatolian coast from Istanbul and hopped to a few Hellenic islands along the way. The culmination of over 10 years of friendship and ended with the loss of a grandparent, in many ways it was a transformative experience.

Iceland

Afmæli: Journey in Iceland

For my Quadranscentennial birthday, I took a trip I'd been wanting to take for the past 6 years. Three lovely strangers from Lithuania and myself spent seven days driving around the majority of Iceland, drinking in all its splendor and beauty, and filming as we went along. While I'm proud of the result, no film could do the beauty of this great country justice other than your own eyes.
