Welcome to the enchanting tapestry of St Albans, a city that whispers tales of Roman glory and medieval majesty through its cobblestone streets and ancient structures.
Let's turn back the clock to around 50 AD, when this vibrant city was known as Verulamium, a Roman settlement boasting grandeur that would make even Julius Caesar raise an eyebrow. Verulamium was the real deal – a bustling hub with theaters echoing laughter, forums buzzing with debate, and Roman bathhouses where citizens soaked away their worries.
Fast forward to the 3rd century, and meet the legendary St. Alban. This chap wasn't your average Joe; he sheltered a Christian priest, sealing his fate as Britain's first Christian martyr. The city, grateful for his sacrifice, adopted his name – St Albans. Imagine a Roman superhero origin story, but with togas instead of capes.
Now, let's step into Verulamium Park, a place where the echoes of Roman footsteps still linger. Ruins of ancient walls and an amphitheater transport you back in time, letting you stroll through the very stones where Roman citizens once walked. It's like unlocking a secret level in a historical video game.
Fast forward again to the medieval extravaganza. The Normans rode into town in the 11th century, shaking things up like knights in shining armor. St Albans Cathedral took centre stage, a colossal masterpiece soaring into the sky. Pilgrims flocked here for spiritual solace, and the cathedral became a symbol of medieval splendour.
The medieval market town grew organically around the cathedral, turning St Albans into a bustling centre of commerce. Narrow streets wind through the city like a labyrinth, each one telling a story of traders haggling, bards singing, and knights clinking their armour. It's a living medieval fair every day.
Zoom in on the 19th century, where the industrial revolution meets medieval charm. The arrival of the railway transformed St Albans, connecting it to the hustle and bustle of London. Victorian architecture blended seamlessly with the medieval structures, creating a cityscape that's both timeless and dynamic.
And oh, the Clock Tower! Standing tall since the 15th century, it's not just a timepiece; it's a storyteller. Every chime echoes through the streets, recounting the passage of time and the city's rich history. It's like having a conversation with the past every hour.
In the heart of St Albans today, you'll find echoes of its medieval and Roman past harmoniously coexisting. The Maltings Arts Theatre, once a hub for medieval trade, now hosts performances that bridge the gap between history and modernity. The city has become a living canvas, where the strokes of medieval and Roman influences paint a vibrant picture for all to admire.
So, whether you're wandering through the ruins of Verulamium Park or exploring the medieval maze of St Albans' streets, you're stepping into a living history book where the chapters of Roman and medieval eras unfold with each footfall. It's a journey through time, and St Albans is your captivating guide.

Ghost Wave | Chris Dixon | Talks at Google
Chris Dixon discusses his non-fiction book about Cortes Bank, the submerged mountain that is 100-miles southwest of Los Angeles. Said to create some of the largest waves on the planet, it is a dangerous and seductive place for big wave surfers who risk their lives trying to surf it. Chris researched the history of this mysterious place, from the ancient people that lived on the neighboring islands to the first sailors that attempted to map the California Coast and nearly died in the waves of Cortes Bank. Fielding audience questions after the presentation, Chris is joined by surf photographers Rob Brown and Jason Murray, along with big wave surfing legends Jeff Clark, Ken Skindog Collins, and Greg Long.
The Meaning of Place—Stories of Resilience
Presented 6/16/2018: Please join Theodore Jojola, University of New Mexico Distinguished Professor and Regents’ Professor in the Community and Regional Planning Program, School of Architecture and Planning, as he presents a talk on community, identity, and resilience. Since time immemorial, people have attached their identities to the places that they have settled. Community embodies the intersection of people and the natural resources that sustain them. That relationship is expressed by their worldview. A worldview describes the social and spiritual attachment to place. I will draw from these relationships to show examples of how communities have met these challenges. In addition to highlighting NM Indigenous communities that have persevered in time and space, we will examine contemporary examples of such place-making as exemplified in the histories of the Albuquerque Indian School and the Bataan Death March.
This is part of the La Canoa Lecture Series.

Arizona, Utah and Nevada - Incredibly beautiful places in America. US road trip
I continue to explore America.
This time I managed to cover four southwestern US states at once: California, Nevada, Arizona and Utah. And yes, it was a real road trip!
And while traveling by car, which my Instagram followers and I called a tank, I saw all the most basic things: from snow-capped mountains to huge cacti and deep canyons.
The path ran to the majestic Grand Canyon. But I managed to drop into the famous Horseshoe, and the Antelope Canyon, and the largest national park in America - Death Valley. I even managed to visit a store where aliens are very fond of.
It was one of the most interesting tours of Yang Buyan's big trip around the USA. I hope you enjoy the video. Enjoy watching!
