Once upon a time, when I first moved to New Zealand in 2004, I wrote a weekly email to my close family and friends, cleverly titled The Weekly. It was my way of sharing my new Antipodean life with the people I loved. Due to popular demand, I’m reinstating The Weekly, and I’d love to have you along for the ride.

HALL OF MENTAL CULTIVATION – ORIGINS
The Hall of Mental Cultivation is part of Beijing’s Forbidden City. Emperors of the Qing Dynasty (1644-1912) lived, worked, read and worshiped there….which is basically what I do in my home office, on a much less grand scale. But I love the name.
