I’m back in San Juan, butt planted on a stool at Gusto’s Miramar, my usual Monday location. Summer has arrived in Puerto Rico which means a few points more temperature and humidity -- just enough so that my new pants and long-sleeve-shirts are officially useless.

Back to San Juan
I got back to Puerto Rico a few days ago, after my longest flying journey to date. I started at 4:30 am on Monday (Puerto Rico time) and landed at 9 am Wednesday. I did get a room and spend a day in Taipei with my 21-hour layover there, but other than that it was …
