Big Apple, Black Sand and the Midnight Sun
is a collection of 15 essays written by author Dave Ursillo as he journeyed across 13,000 miles in pursuit of a meaningful life.

In Part Two,
a longing for space and fresh energy are discovered across the beaches of Hawaii where, for five weeks, author Dave Ursillo and friend Jacob live in oceanfront cabins and island dive bars. Themes of love, heartbreak, friendship and human-to-human connection emanate.
In Part Three

is more than a snapshot into the "nomadic" lifestyle of a location-independent writer and creative entrepreneur. This book tells tales of real-life adventure, moments of heartache and profound doubts about living the high ideals that one strives to embody. Through moments of joy, stories of friendship, tales of heartache and even national tragedies,
is the perfect read to inspire lovers of travel and adventure, but especially those who feel called to discover purpose and meaning in one's life, every day. Beyond all else,
hopes to encourage you to embark upon on a journey of truth and authentic living of your own, whether traveling abroad or in your own backyard.
