I will be travelling for nearly 3 and a half months throughout Scandinavia and the Mediterranean with a backpack, stack of sketchbooks, and a camera in pursuit of climate responsive vernacular urbanism, landscapes, and infrastructure.  Studying in these two environmentally and culturally different areas will create a very interesting catalogue of experiences and principles.

I am also in hopes of the pursuit of the primitive – this is the grand tour of these geographic areas that I have been waiting many years to delve into and absorb. I will not hesitate to share ideas and thoughts that happen upon me as I travel and use this site as a form of journal.  If you have any advice, thoughts, or responses to the material and thoughts displayed on this site please comment or email me directly at toole.daniel@gmail.com.

Below are rough, working maps for both the north and south leg of the trip.
