Why a site called The Next Thing? When I left the video game industry at the end of 2019, my friends and colleagues would keep asking "What's next?" Well, this is what's next. It's more of a journey than a destination, and I'd love to share the ride with you!
So welcome to my new website on which I post about the things I'm enjoying now (food and drink), and occasionally write about the interesting adventures along the way.
If you don't know me, I've lived my life on the west coast of the United States, but I've travelled a fair amount and have dined and had drink in 34 different countries. Now able to pick anywhere to live, I've chosen Savannah. It's time for this wannabe southern gentleman to make good on that dream.
Food and drink has a special ability to bring people together. I have found this in my own life, as I've gotten to know people from around the world over drinks and the dinner table. Take these pages and decide where you want to meet fascinating people and enjoy food and drink worthy of starting a conversation.
Want me to try a restaurant or bar? Want me to to go back and try a different dish at a place where I've already eaten?
Let me know here. In the meantime, I'll be working on What's Next!
