Alaska, Sort of...

How sad that this couple left their magnet in their hotel room. Having nothing to pacify this ferocious bear they had to resort to human sacrifice...

No, you misunderstood our story. We didn't want to sacrafice the magnet so we gave the child. The bear couldn't control the baby and chased us down and demanded the magnet as payment for babysitting.

THE PROJECT

This blog is about a personal project I've been working on for years. My aim is to get a magnet into every country and island on earth. At first I left them on refrigerators in hostels. Then I offered them as thanks for small favors, like helping me find my way in a foreign land or offering a smile when I needed one. I am now shameless in my venture, and very aggressive, I might add. I send them with scientists doing research, aid and government workers, soldiers and people going on cruises. Nobody dare mention travel in my presence! Each person who carries a magnet is requested to tell me about where they left it and take photos. Very few actually do.

In passing these magnets out around the globe, I am constantly surprised at the reaction to receiving such a small gift. Sometimes I hand one to someone I know but often it is a stranger. Often the recipient simply thanks me. Other times I've had both cheeks kissed, been given small gifts in return, and on occasion, the reaction is startlingly enthusiastic.

In this blog I will attempt to track these magnets and offer stories and photos from some of the places they go, the people who take them and those they give them to.
