WSJ Lifestyle Editor @sebmodak wanted to learn how to fly fish, so he headed to the Catskills and enrolled in Trout School. The two day course taught him about casting, entomology and how to read the water. He walked away understanding how people become lifelong anglers. ⁠ ⁠ Read more at the link in bio.⁠ ⁠ Reporting: @sebmodak⁠ Video: Rebecca Alifimoff⁠ Cover Photo: @willfujiomatsuda 10 Jul 2026 To prepare for the World Cup, we found a New York City bar rooting for every team in the tournament.

Our travel editor set out to see just how much of the globe he can sample in one day-long food crawl.⁠ ⁠ Host/Reporter: @sebmodak⁠ Producer: Jacob Ohara 18 Oct 2025 In @wsj, I wrote about the bewilderment of new parenthood and how, amid an avalanche of unknowns, I grasped at something I do know well: how to go, go, go. This essay about adventuring with Felix was tough to write as it made the uncertainties of being a dad (“am I doing this right?!”) resonate even louder than usual in my brain. But none of us *really* know what we’re doing do we, and I’m sure as hell having a lot of fun introducing this kid to the world in the meantime. Link in bio. Gorgeous illustration by @consolifabio.

Experience New York's multitudes on the Empire State Trail by heading to the link in our bio. 24 Feb 2025 In Singapore, it's possible to have a life-changing meal for $3. But the country's hawker centers, where food stalls sell traditional dishes from the country's various ethnic groups, are at threat of disappearing. 25 Jan 2025 here’s to 2024, a year of quiet nights at home, and quieter ones in the frozen woods; of old hobbies and new microfixations; of moonrises, sunsets and shy celestial bodies; of foggy isles and swampy peninsulas, and the stories they hold; of reluctant football diplomacy and long days on the bike; and, most fantastic of all, of Felix, who has made the years ahead so much brighter. happy new year, friends. 31 Dec 2024 About a year and a half ago, in the sweat-drenched depths of a New York summer, I embarked on a mission: to ride my bicycle about 600 miles from Buffalo to Brooklyn. It felt like a culmination of a lot of smaller trips I’d done on two wheels—and a way to better understand my big, beautiful backyard; a final testing of a hypothesis that moving at 10-15 miles an hour, powered by your own aching limbs, is the ideal speed of travel. I coerced @maggietish to join me for a portion. And I convinced @bicyclingmag to let me write about it. That feature is out now, with ace photos by @bryanbanducci who made me look much cooler and fitter than I am, and sharp editing by @pavlinacz. Proud of this expedition and the story that came from it. 27 Dec 2024 For @wsjmag I took a meandering trip up and down the Malay Peninsula. First, in the lap of luxury aboard the @easternoriental; then, by car, seeking detours and pit stops wherever possible. Along the way, I tried to come to a clearer understanding of what “slow travel” means—as a philosophy, as a practice and, yes, as a marketing buzzword. Turns out, my personal slow travel approach involves a whole lot of eating. Link in bio. 09 Dec 2024 Welcome to the world, Felix. There’s so much to see—let’s get to it 🩶 03 Nov 2024
