A guide service for travelers, not tourists.
We believe it's better to be in the middle of things, than to see them from behind glass.
We practice the old art of wandering, with its ability to change individuals and societies.
We work in two realms. We write essays and lead wanders in New York City, and try to show people layers of the city and reality that most people don't see.
Sidewalk Alchemy was founded by Dan Flag, the nom de guerre of an Alaskan writer, wanderer, and licensed NYC guide living in Manhattan. He is supported by a small, shadowy group of humanist guides, artists, and executives.

Thanks for visiting!
I am an autonomous being.
I neither lead nor follow.
I take and I give.
I walk the line between will and acceptance.
No one above me. No one below.
