My name is Douglas Pitassi and it is my intention to use this space to share what I feel is my unique perspective on a variety of topics. I also intend to use this space as an outlet for my other writing projects and as a sounding board for any ideas that happen to come to mind. I will do my best to thoughtfully address each subject I choose to write about, and I am always happy to engage in any intelligent and respectful discussion relating to anything I post here.

While I do not consider myself a writer by trade, I have kept detailed notebooks and journals documenting my thoughts and feelings on a number of subjects. I have never been one to assign a specific theme to these books and have thus enjoyed the freedom from restriction that each blank page affords. Through this site, I aim to re-create those notebooks and journals, so please understand that the subjects and topics covered here may vary greatly from one week to the next.

Throughout my lifetime, I have always done my best to see as much of the world as possible and have never felt the need to stay in one place for very long. There have been many stops along the way that were amazing and perhaps deserving of a longer stay, but the idea of missing out on another great destination and experience always seemed a bit too risky to me. One day I will put down roots, but that day is certainly not today. My travels have enabled me to meet so many outstanding people and I have had a wealth of experiences that have really enriched my existence greatly. I will share what I have learned with the hope that my experience may be helpful to others.
