About the Book

What is a Terrian? Everyone born should know. Any immigrant or refugee can appreciate what Terrian means. If you have ever been a newcomer there is no reason for you not to know. So what in the world is a Terrian? Exactly that, someone living in the world, the whole world of the planet we call Earth. A Terrian makes him/herself at home everywhere in the world, our shared human home. Terrian is now a book too. It is a part of the Terrian Journals series and includes writing from more than one volume of the series. The entire series begins with A Sketch of Terrian History. Terrian is rooted in both that first volume and Terrian Journals: living as a newcomer (thoughts in adventure). Although Terrian is primarily an introduction to selected thoughts in adventure, the thoughts are based on actual events recounted in Terrian Journals. The thoughts in adventure of Terrian come from living on more than one terrestrial spot. The consequences go beyond philosophical reflections. These thoughts are reality-based, tried, and tested. And they actually work!
About the Author: The author is a Terrian. He begins writing the Terrian Journals series while living in Rio de Janeiro, Cordoba, and Valparaiso when nasty military dictatorships are on the way out and democracies are returning, seven years before the Berlin Wall collapses. The writing of this book and others continues while the author is living in Fukuoka, Barcelona, Djakarta, Singapore, Tokyo, Québec, Fort de France, Quito, Santiago de Cuba, Miyazaki, etc. Travelling extensively, tens of thousands of kilometres overland, on foot, by thumb, bus, train, trishaw, and rickshaw, he crosses vast stretches of the Americas from Ushuaia to Inuvik, Asiaeur from Vladivostok to Tallin, southern Asia from Chittagong to Delhi, etc. He takes some ferries and planes too. He is invited to stay in ordinary people's homes or sleeps in very modest hotels, and sometimes in a tent. Some of these adventures are alone, others are with his Carioca friend Zita, and yet others are with his Kyushu partner Mariko. Before any of this, he is born in a subarctic city of Canada and earns degrees in political science, adult education, journalism, and community planning at three universities in Ontario and B.C. His work includes community journalism, planning, cooperative housing, civil liberties, and adult education. He and his partner work on their own in a very tiny, virtually non-profit adult education organization, which they carry with them.
