  • Summary

  • In this interview, I talk to Michael Jensen.  Michael is one-half of the husband & husband team of writers behind the popular travel blog, Brent and Michael are Going Places (www.brentandmichaelaregoingplaces.com), where they chronicle their lives as digital nomads where they’ve been living in the larger world for the past several years.  Michael begins his story describing the importance of books as an early inspiration in his life.  He describes how it feels to navigate the world as a gay man in his young adulthood, his work life as a writer, and his concern about public discourse in America.
