About Us
Hello Friends!
We're two parents with a preschooler who left our jobs in the U.S. to embark on a "life sabbatical" for...well, awhile let's just say. We started in Lisbon for three months, then on to London for a few weeks, then back across the pond for some bike touring, a cabin high in the mountains, eventually vanlife wherever the way beckons. Probably. That's the plan. But you know what they say, life is what happens while you're making other plans, so our goal is just to live each day as well as we can, hopefully get pretty good at it, and see where it all takes us. We invite you to follow along.
