Come Back Frayed

Yet more tales from the road, told by full-time traveler Colin Wright.

Travel frays. Not just our stuff, but our selves. It pushes us and rubs us against uncomfortable realities. This friction creates gaps in our self-identities, loosening and then tightening our structures, over and over and over.

From the secluded rice terraces of Mayoyao to the expat-friendly beaches of Boracay, Come Back Frayed is a collection of stories and essays written from and about the Philippines.
