Martin’s Next Port

Where the river might lead next: places to learn about, experiences worth trying, and a book still finding its course.

Setting a course

Curiosity is the compass

Every river eventually opens onto somewhere new. This is where Martin keeps the places, ideas and experiences he is curious about exploring next.

Nothing here is a travel log. These are interests and possibilities, and notes will be added as ideas take shape.

On the horizon

Ports of interest

  • Horizon 01

    Costa Rica

    Rainforest rivers, two coastlines and a famously unhurried pace of life. Costa Rica is high on the list of places Martin would love to learn more about, and perhaps one day see from the water.

    A possibility, not yet a plan.

  • Horizon 02

    Europe

    Old river towns, canals and waterways that have carried people and stories for centuries. Europe is a horizon Martin is curious about: its rivers, its harbors and the conversations waiting along the way.

    A possibility, not yet a plan.

  • Horizon 03

    The Next Bend

    A working book project. Its shape and story are still being discovered, one bend at a time.

The Next Bend

Martin is interested in writing, and The Next Bend is where that interest is taking shape. Progress notes and approved excerpts are shared as the project develops.
