What’s Next?
As we’ve been reexamining our plan for a long-term base, it’s been a bit of a challenge. We really love Romania, and when I think about what’s next, I go back and forth. But we have some upcoming travel that puts us in a prime position to explore other options, so I feel like we need to do that at a minimum. After spending the last 2 years in places that really didn’t care too much about the Christmas holiday, or even New Year’s, we...
Time for a reality check about nomadic travel

For me the highlight of the last year was living on an oasis in Morocco for 2 months. It was...

When people think about the nomadic life, I imagine they first envision people like the Berbers of Morocco and other Saharan countries. Thanks to social media and the Internet, digital nomads is a more commonly known term. We...
What coming back to Mexico taught me
When we left Mexico over a year ago, I was so excited to see new places and be in a part of the world I hadn’t visited. We loved Mexico and Central America, but we loved South America even more. When we decided to return to Mexico for an interesting business venture, it was with mixed feelings. I learned some interesting things in the process. The first thing I learned, or re-learned, is to follow my gut. Everything within me...
